Truly evil would be to run your bandwidth at the full gigabit between home and business full time. Then they cannot even see and monitor traffic patterns. Plus it means you aren't sharing your bandwidth with anyone since you are using 100% of it... Hmmm. 8 seconds a gigabyte, 7.5 GB / min, 450 GB / hour, ~10 Terabytes / day. If there is a "fair use" clause you might get dinged though.
