I have no interest in having my storage or bandwidth abused for anything that is not being shown on my screen right that very moment. And even then, uploading this content to other people is ludicrous. I will be sure to block your assets.

Anyone know of a good way to detect sites that are rude enough to abuse my network connection for their own gain?

Probably the best way is to check the WebRTC stats [1] if using Chrome. We sit atop the WebRTC stack for p2p functionality.

Bravo for your transparent and open approach to user feedback. The standard these days seems to have fallen low, with countless companies implementing sneaky ways to exploit users however they can, with sugar-coated, obfuscated language. It's refreshing to see such honest replies from this project, especially considering the question is about how to avoid participating unwittingly. I also would prefer not to share bandwidth in this way without knowing, but as you described in another comment, I see there are real positive benefits when used ethically.
