EFF makes available Switzerland Network Testing Tool
The Electronic Frontier Foundation has made available a new application named Switzerland Network Testing Tool.
Switzerland Network Testing Tool is an open source application which is designed to help the user test out the integrity of data communications over networks, ISPs and firewalls.
Basically, it can be used to check if the ISP is manipulating with your internet traffic or not.
EFF said in a blog post about this tool:
Switzerland is currently in alpha release as a command line tool. In other words, right now it is aimed at relatively sophisticated users. Switzerland is designed to detect the modification or injection of packets of data traveling over IP networks, including those introduced by anti-P2P tools from Sandvine (widely believed to be used by Comcast to interfere with BitTorrent uploads) and AudibleMagic, advertising injection systems like FairEagle, censorship systems like the Great Firewall of China, and other systems that we don’t know about yet.
