3. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

   Bandwidth throttling is also used as a measurement of data rate on Internet speed test websites. Throttling can be used to actively limit a user's upload and download rates on programs such as video streaming , BitTorrent protocols and other file sharing applications, as well as even out the usage of the total bandwidth supplied across all ...
