ISP traffic shaping...next line of defence...?

[Applellial]

My current ISP has taken measures to limit P2P usage and other ISPs have adopted similar policies like FUPs and caps....If some ISPs can actually limit P2P usage, it's just a matter of time before all ISPs decide to do this....are there any ways to counter it?

A VPN encrypts all your traffic. That should get through most shapers unless they're simply throttling any kind of traffic they can't recognize.

If you use BitTorrent, uTorrent in uTP-only mode can also work.
