Hi Vaibhav,
what about those with an active Whitebox? Are yours running with a special firmware or anything that would prevent existing participants to opt-in to your tests as well?
You get a probe that runs the stock SamKnows firmware. Our tests are then rolled out on top as a software update. We will not update your existing probe since your existing probe was initially given out for a different purpose and maybe running a different set of tests that may or may not interfere with our test setup.
What kind of measurements are to be expected? Are we talking about multiple GB of traffic an hour?
Expect the same requirements [a] as you’d from a typical SamKnows box. This research is in collaboration with SamKnows, so our tests are also tested by the SamKnows team before rollout. We make an effort to check with the probe hosts for permission before deploying a new test so the probe host is always kept in loop. [a] https://www.samknows.eu/faqs
