Charter and AT&T already were "blocking it" by killing certain ports. You've got to configure port forwarding to use Bit Torrent on either one.

Charter isn't blocking it. BT works just fine for me.

Then you are using a port that isn't blacklisted. Most clients have gotten better at automatically adjusting the settings but in the early days it was all manual.
