Did they give you any warning first?


No warnings

They are proactive. I doubt they are "inspecting packets".

They probably have a trigger on their router that if a client requests to connect to certain known sites to go ahead and disable their service. It doesn't happen on the first connection. It is usually after 2-3 times.

My son got us disco'd for trying to download movies one time. It took a phone call and verbal assurances we won't do it again. They threatened that if we are caught doing it again they may discconnect the service permanently

Again, VPN and you are fine

IMO that's no way to treat a customer.

Until they decide to start throttling or disconnecting VPN users. Apparently they have no problem disconnecting customers based upon the sites they visit, why not VPN users next?
