EFF releases Net Neutrality detector software

POSTED BY CORY DOCTOROW, AUGUST 2, 2008 2:25 AM

The Electronic Frontier Foundation's new "Switzerland" tool can detect violations of Net Neutrality by your ISP:
"The sad truth is that the FCC is ill-equipped to detect ISPs interfering with your Internet connection," said Fred von Lohmann, EFF Senior Intellectual Property Attorney. "It's up to concerned Internet users to investigate possible network neutrality violations, and EFF's Switzerland software is designed to help with that effort. Comcast isn't the first, and certainly won't be the last, ISP to meddle surreptitiously with its subscribers' Internet communications for its own benefit."
