Internet service providers to act against online piracy by reducing bandwidth
kitamesume:
any free VPN that doesn't cap the speeds too much? 250KB/s cap is about enough for me(because thats my max speed XD)

Not that I know of. There's Tor, where you'll be lucky to get 20-30KB/s, and I used a service called HTTP-Tunnel a few years back which offered roughly dialup speeds for free, but that's about it as far as I'm aware. Any service of higher quality than that is going to cost money, I'm afraid, due to the cost of providing the bandwidth.

Oh my ISP has been doing this for years. They say they monitor all packet transfers but so long as you capped it at certain times nobody gave a crap...
