Yup, some of the examples of DPI use given in the ITU's final draft
includes:

* DPI-based policing of peer-to-peer traffic
* Services-based billing
* “Business Card (vCard) application – Correlate Employee with

* Identifying uploading BitTorrent users
* and blocking Peer-to-Peer VoIP telephony with proprietary end-to-end
application control protocols
