EFF releases "Switzerland" net neutrality detector
The Electronic Frontier Foundation just issued a press release announcing the release of "a software tool for customers to test the integrity of their Internet communications". The intent is to be able to see if ISP's are modifying traffic in violation of network neutrality principles.
The press release states: "Until now, there hasn't been a reliable way to tell if somebody -- a hacker, an ISP, corporate firewall, or the Great Firewall of China -- is modifying your Internet traffic en route," said Peter Eckersley, EFF Staff Technologist and designer of Switzerland. "The few tests available have been for narrow and specific kinds of interference, or have required tremendous amounts of advanced forensic labor. Switzerland is designed to make general-purpose ISP testing faster and easier."
