    Last I heard (heard from comcast) is that they do not block vpn traffic
    but do monitor. If you do use it all the time, they request that you
    purchase the business service. Not sure what they will do if you
    refuse.

      Comcast used to have an AUP that banned VPN traffic on
    their home service. Have they ever rescinded that?
