    sounds like a perfect setup for a torrent farm. they can’t stop you because you’re forced to pay for it.

      do it. get a good VPN and do it. I know how these networks are usually architected - they probably will never notice. use as much bandwidth as you can over a VPN and they’ll probably never really see it. also there’s likely no bandwidth cap, since the fiber circuits that feed these units are also usually uncapped in terms of how much data they can pass per billing period, unlike Spectrum/Comcast/VZ/all the other shit ISPs out there.

      I know I don’t notice a heavy user when I look at my metrics and even if I did, I don’t get paid to care. just don’t get caught with your VPN off, they probably will see that and disable your service or give you a call and tell you you’re being a bad user a la Skippy.
