  6. “CGNATs also create significant operational fallout stemming from the fact that hundreds or even thousands of clients can appear to originate from a single IP address,” wrote Cloudflare researchers Vasilis Giotsas and Marwan Fayed. “This means an IP-based security system may inadvertently block or throttle large groups of users as a result of a single user behind the CGNAT engaging in malicious activity.”

  8. A GitHub binary download rate throttled? Has anyone noticed if GitHub implements some kind of download speed limit? And do downloads frequently seem to be restricted to around 100 KiB/s ~1Mbit/s. The speed then constantly fluctuates around that level, sometimes a bit above, sometimes a bit below. This can't be anything other than an intentionally implemented limiter. #github #download #speed #throttling
  9. Last week, the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the FCC,
    rejecting its authority to classify broadband as a Title II “telecommunications service.”

    In doing so, the court removed net neutrality protections for all Americans
    and  took away the FCC’s ability to meaningfully regulate internet service providers.

    This ruling fundamentally gets wrong the reality of internet service we all live with every day.
    Nearly 80% of Americans view broadband access to be as important as water and electricity.
    It is no longer an extra, non-necessary “information service,” as it was seen 40 years ago,
    but it is a vital medium of communication in everyday life.

    Business, health services, education, entertainment, our social lives, and more have increasingly moved online.
    By ruling that broadband “information service” and not a “telecommunications service”
    this court is saying that the ISPs that control your broadband access will continue to face little to no oversight for their actions.
    This is intolerable.
    Net neutrality is the principle that ISPs treat all data that travels over their network equally,
    without improper discrimination in favor of particular apps, sites, or services.
    At its core, net neutrality is a principle of equity and protector of innovation
    —that, at least online, large monopolistic ISPs don’t get to determine winners and losers.
    Net neutrality ensures that users determine their online experience, not ISPs.
    As such, it is fundamental to user choice, access to information, and free expression online.

    By removing protections against actions like #blocking, #throttling, and #paid #prioritization,
    the court gives those willing and able to pay ISPs an advantage over those who are not.
    It privileges large legacy corporations that have partnerships with the big ISPs,
    and it means that newer, smaller, or niche services will have trouble competing, even if they offer a superior service.
    It means that ISPs can throttle your service
    –or that of, say, a fire department fighting the largest wildfire in state history.
    They can block a service they don’t like.
    In addition to charging you for access to the internet, they can charge services and websites for access to you, -- artificially driving up costs.
    And where most Americans have little choice in home broadband providers, i
    t means these ISPs will be able to exercise their #monopoly power not just on the price you pay for access, but how you access and engage with information as well.
    Moving forward, now more than ever it becomes important for individual states to pass their own net neutrality laws,
    or defend the ones they have on the books.
    #California passed a gold standard net neutrality law in 2018 that has survivedjudicial scrutiny.
    It is up to us to ensure it remains in place.
    #Congress can also end this endless whiplash of reclassification and decide, once and for all, by passing a law classifying broadband internet services firmly under Title II.
    Such proposals have been introduced before;
    they ought to be introduced again.

  11. I've been experimenting with #GPU #throttling a bit: Adjusting GPU frequency can save up to 30% power with just a 10% #performance tradeoff for #AI workloads. A compelling case for #power #efficiency / #sustainable computing!

    More info here on my blog: nohuddleoffense.de/2024/12/17/

    (And yes, the performance on my GPU is bad, but the principles holds true for larger systems - up to those ~1000W TDP GPUs)

  13. Throttling в процессорах — инволюция. Зеленые против Красных

    Мы привыкли, что производительность процессоров растет с каждой новой моделью. Иначе зачем их покупать? Зеленые технологии в процессорах ранее присутствовали, но легко управлялись через схему питания в Windows. Однако новый кластер серверов от Lenovo сумел неприятно удивить, а после изучения документации возникло много вопросов к архитекторам и архитектуре. И зеленое будущее уже видится не таким приятным.

  18. Как потреблять API с ограничением по RPS в .NET приложениях

    Однажды каждый C# программист получает на работе задачу по разработке интеграции с внешней системой, где ограничена максимальная частота запросов в секунду . Интернет яростно сопротивлялся предоставить мне инструкцию к написанию такого кода, закидывая туториалами по настройке ограничения RPS на сервере, а не клиенте . Но теперь на Хабре есть эта статья, которая научит отправлять запросы из HttpClient так, чтобы не получать 429 Too Many Requests .

  19. #FCC reinstates #NetNeutrality policy after #Trump era cancellation. By following the law Congress wrote for modern internet-access service, FCC is reestablishing its federal oversight of the #telecommunications service that connects everyone.

    #Broadband providers will need to stop playing favorites or #throttling links to websites they has no commercial deals with. Measure now likely to be challenged in court by corporate #telecom & cable communications giants.

  24. News that Youtube is selectively is generating a lot of discussion. The only thing surprising is that many are surprised. Have a look at the history:

    - Sabotaging Firefox's marketshare: threadreaderapp.com/thread/111
    - Integrating tracking into Chrome
    - Introduction of that lobotomized ad-blockers on Chrome
    - Attempt at gaslighting users into uninstalling ad-blockers

    We knew that Firefox users were in for a punishment sooner or later. This is just a confirmation.

  25. #SocialMedia #NetNeutrality #Twitter #Throttling: "Twitter continues to slow traffic to competing sites nearly a month after it partially pulled back from such throttling, a Markup analysis has found.

    Users of the social platform, now officially known as X, are made to wait on average about two and a half seconds after clicking on links to Bluesky, Facebook, Instagram, and Substack, the analysis found. That’s more than 60 times longer than the average wait for links to other sites.

    While not included in our full tests, the delay appears to also include links to the new Threads platform, which like Facebook and Instagram is owned by Meta."

  27. I specialize in software performance and scalability.

    To date I'm aware of about 150 techniques and patterns for achieving that. They are all in my own toolbox. (I hope?)

    One of them... is request throttling.

  29. Cuando pensamos en problemas de diseño de los Macbooks de la segunda mitad de los 2010 pensamos mucho en la pérdida de puertos y en el teclado. Pero lo del #throttling por calor del #MacBook Pro con el Intel Core i9 es algo para denunciar también.

    Quién me mandaría a mí comprarme esta máquina pensando que precisamente iba a funcionar un poco mejor. Y el dineral que me costó. 😓

  30. @IAmFox @Houl well, until 2014 @fuchsiii was stuck on #Dialup and I was stuck for some time on shitty #EDGE that wasn't faster either...

    Not to mention #DTAG got people like myself hounding them when they wanted to retroactively introduce #throttling and abolish #NetNeutrality for some time...

  31. Interesting post on the @briar #messenger by @Adam - watch the #video linked from the post.

    #Briar is a quite resilient, secure messenger that is useful when #internet is only intermittently available (e.g., #disasters, #war zones, oppressive #throttling). It's capable of falling back even on #bluetooth. It supports forums and private groups.

    Downsides: #synchronous communications only (so far); quite some battery drain; images compressed to 32KB, to save bandwidth.

  34. @jwildeboer @EU_Commission on stuff like #Vectoring and #DOCSIS, the specs don't really allow that.

    Whereas on #GPON and espechally #Ethernet-based #fiber that would be feasible.

    But also #throttling on #mobile networks (#2G / #3G / #4G #LTE / #5G) isn't done by properly negotiating a "link speed" or "link bandwith" but literally dropping/rejecting packets if that would exceed the configured speed is still not illegal.
