So, if the ISP eventually deployed cgnat and broke P2P, they’ll going to be screwed, right?

you can use p2p services behind cgnat, like how do you think torrent works?

I’m behind cgnat myself and I can download but can’t seed. If everyone is behibd cgnat the swarm would be dead fast. In Korea, there are only 3 ISPs and if they collude to use cgnat with client isolation, they can kill these P2P scheme used by streaming site and boost their profit sharing revenue.

not sure where you’re getting that from, all you need is some server to establish connections via and then it works mostly fine

They sponsor a Starcraft 1 League in Korea at least.
