That doesn't work if they decide to throttle anything not on the "whitelist" of high priority sites based on your plan.

- turc1656 9y agoi don't believe that's true. they won't be able to see what you are accessing other than the VPN as long as you are routing all traffic through it (which you should be). so it's all or nothing for them. They can't really pick and choose what to prioritize because they can't see what it is due to the encryption.
- SAI_Peregrinus 9y agoThey can easily choose what to prioritize. VPNs won't be prioritized, so any traffic over them will get slowed down.
- turc1656 9y agoRight, I think we're talking about two different things. Yes, they can choose to not prioritize the VPN traffic. But they won't be able to, for example, slow down Netflix because they have a competing on-demand service because they won't be able to see the traffic. So it's all or nothing when on the VPN. All of your traffic is throttled or none of it will be.
- SmirkingRevenge 9y agoRight. So in other words a VPN isnt actually a work around at all.
