Net Neutrality Test?

Source: saunderslog.com

Dan Kaminsky has developed a technique he calls “TCP-based active probing for faults” which can be used to determine if some carriers are treating some packets better than others.  First shown at BlackHat, he expects to release a commercial tool later.

Inquiring minds want to know if this is intended to be an end-user tool, or merely something for the netop.  Will I be able to use this personally to figure out what the heck is wrong with my hotel WiFi connection?

Great stuff!
