I'm worried it will lead to bans of those though too.
Not that they won't try, but it's very difficult to blanket ban VPNs. There are very legitimate business reasons to use them and it isn't necessarily easy for ISPs to distinguish between a "recreational" VPN connection and an employee VPN'ing into say, a work datacenter. Industry will kick up a massive fuss about it.
Hell, I VPN into my home network all the time to access my self hosted work applications, it's 10x more secure than leaving ports open to the wider internet.
Would be hilarious if they tried. I wouldn't put it past them.
