How can they do that legally?
Read your TOS...an ISP can shape traffic as it needs or wants...
Traffic shaping is fine but complete throttling of ALL VPN services? No way...
You realize Rogers is a private network? And to use that network you agree to a terms of service. Rogers owns that network and do with it what they choose. If for some reason you don't like it you are free to choose someone else to provide your service to you.

So yes WAY....they can do what they want.

Give your head a shake. You know how many VPN's servers there are, around the WORLD? Ya think Ted would be in a little bit of trouble shaking 'em all down when we all go to VPN to beat throttling? He can't shut down access to all legit services! Really now....

Actually they can, those traffic shaping boxes can filter ANY traffic, all they have to do is set a filter for VPN and bam no access. Now, this may take away most of their business but don't think they wouldn't do it given this is Rogers we're talking about.
