Can't help but notice that the rate downloaded from Russian torrent sites are many orders of magnitude faster than the anemic speed I get from American ones. Any thoughts on why this would be?

Some Russian torrent sites/forums are organized in such a way that you need to be registered and be above certain download/upload ratio, or else -- locked out

I like that they added the little flag icons in uTorrent next to each peer, it's quite adorable and informative at the same time.
