Keep in mind that some ISP block porst 21, 25 and 80 which is much more restrictive than throttling.
WOW...who blocks port 80?
Inbound? Verizon DSL does, at least.

Outbound? Any provider that implements a forced transparent HTTP proxy does. I suspect that there are quite a few.

Probably many more than will tell you that they are, since it's not an outright "block" per-se, but rather a clever mis-direction. In the end though, they still don't actually allow the routing of TCP/IP packets between your machine and the internet on port 80, because they get hijacked along the way by their proxy. I'm sure that LE is sniffing along too.
