ISPs and authorities increasingly use Deep Packet Inspection hardware to block access to BitTorrent sites, or spy on users’ browsing habits. To offer its users more privacy, isoHunt has now added SSL encryption, making it impossible for your ISP or the authorities to monitor your activities on the BitTorrent site.

SSL encryption is always great since it masks user activities around the web but with some ISPs users might experience slow speeds due to unrecognized data trasfered using certain IPs,many Trackers now are pledging those SSL encryptors to guarantee secured access to their data base one of them is BCG (its offering now the idea of adding this SSL encryption by putting up a poll),I guess TT also added the SSL encryption already 2 months ago,anyway,I guess those guys know what they are doing to Keep what so called "Torrenting" alive :biggrin:

ssl also breaks censorship (unless they block sites by DNS name) because of its encryption. what's next, crypted announces? :biggrin:

I think in futre SSL will become a standard for torrent sites.
A lot of ALT already provide it, some even can't be accessed without using it.

Now the open tracker follow it, because the security is getting more and more important.
