As for all the connections coming from one major financial firm, I
figured out WHY there were 13 connections are once coming
form their network. Someone there is running the client software
for the P2P anonymity service. I use. I found that out this morning
when I tried to access Pandora through it, from here in Cuba.
Becuase Pandora blocks users outside the United States, I have
to use one of these services to circumvent geographic restrictions,
and I got the blocking screen from their filtering software saying
that Pandora is blocked. I think the reason this company blocks
Pandora, but not Live 365 could be that Pandora uses a lot
more bandwidth. Most Live 365 stations rarely go above 32K,
compared to the 150K needed to listen to Pandira. The lower
tiers of broadcast subscriptions (including X5000 and professional
accounts) only allow bitrates to 32K. I have one to 80K, to air
the Classical Hour (because those buying the time from me for that have
requested that bitrate). I think because Live 365 does not use as
much bandwidth as Pandora, this company allows Live 365
through.
Those that pay extra can go to much higher bitrates, but most
broadcasters rarely go above 32K, unless they are buying the
more expensive broadcast subscripion tiers.
So there were people, in workplaces elswhere, that were
coming through this P2P anonymity node, to get to my
station.
What I wonder though is how this one person gets away with
running an P2P anonymity node on their office PC 24/7.
