If they start going after anime torrents, since I don't do American movies.
BakaBT would also go down, as the tracker contact.

The only way the ISP can see what you are downloading is using deep-packet inspection which kills your bandwidth. The best method for ISP to see what you are downloading is tracking the DNS servers they host. They are going to find people who are using the ISP's DNS servers and those who don't have encrypted connection. Another way to can do it is if you use their router they give you or those modem/router.
To get around all of this is to use a different DNS (I use google's DNS servers 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4). Also use utorrent's encrypted setting. When I didn't use any protection Comcast sent me letters letting me know that I'm downloading copyrighted materials. Switching to Google's DNS and have encrypted settings on uTorrent they stopped.
Worst case if they can get around that (pretty much snatching data from google) You can always use a private VPN over seas with a encrypted tunnel.
To have perfect protection is to use IRC

That's probably the cheapest overage fee I've seen so far, when you consider it's $0.20/GB at the lowest (i.e. when you use exactly 50GB).

Until you figure the cost of approx 2400GB per month (up + down: uTorrent) PLUS DDLs and browsing overhead, that uTorrent does NOT track.

I use netlimiter to track how much data is being downloading/uploading on my network.
