The people encrypting their p2p to escape shaping is probably contributing towards isps such as ntl shaping more traffic, I am still on the fence when it comes to shaping but I think all customers should be entitled to xx gig amount of traffic unshaped on "any" protocol so they use their quota how they see fit I also think its wrong to shape only people who happen to be also paying the most for their connection. Once this gets around their will be masses downgrading to 4mbit to upgrade their "real" speeds and ntl lose turnover as a result.
