But if you're streaming movies, they could certainly use a similar strategy over SSH. That's why I say that you probably have no hope of tricking a motivated ISP. But if they're not motivated, all they'll do is see that you're using a VPN, but not see what you are using it for. | |

You mention absolutely legal. Is using a VPN illegal where you are? Or do you mean that it doesn't violate your condition of hiding from the ISP?

For example, there's been research on Identifying HTTPS-Protected Netflix Videos in Real-Time that is based on statistical models. Many of these techniques require accurate timing, but your ISP has that. | |
