    "they are a crappy Internet proxy service for "open wifi" where none of your traffic is encrypted but still requires a user-name and password."

    This is inaccurate. It all depends on how you configure your network. You can have encryption, RADIUS authentication, MAC whitelist/blacklist whatever.

    " oh and it has stupid site balcklists (well that might be the local admin) "

    No "might be" about it. Nothing is blocked by default.

    "while not stopping or slowing down torrents which is one of the reasons they started using it"

    Then they have a configuration problem. We have no problem doing this for one of our networks.

    They *are* crappy, but only because their hardware is absurdly expensive for the speeds it provides. Ubiquiti's Unifi is much better performance/price. Their controller software isn't as advanced though.
