Traffic shaping has already beein bypassed by the new Torrent programs by using encryption

Currently there are only a few Bit Torrent clients that uses Transport Encryption or Protocol Encryption. I know Azureus and uTorrent both do.

The encryption prevents your ISP from listening on your bit torrent ports and employing traffic shaping techniques to limit your torrent bandwidth.
