He only had that problem with one single user. Likewise, he can restrict 
bandwidth to google only for that one single user too. Like I already said, 
your proxy method can be easily circumvented using something like an SSL 
proxy after your proxy, whereas QoS can selectively keep a user from unfairly 
exceeding certain bandwidth. This will not only solve problems with the http 
protocol, but also problems with the user using too much bandwidth in 
general.
