Well that was lame, how do you get around it?

I just go to rabb.it and use their virtual machine to log in. It's a US IP and technically not a proxy so it's not blocked. I do the same with netflix. I'm still using the VPN to access rabb.it so I'm still behind it, but not as far as the media companies are concerned.

Were I you, I'd shoot them an email. VPN's usually have extremely good customer service, b/c there's so many competitors.
Just something like: hey I like the service, but comcast is fucking w/ me. Are you guys affected by comcast?
They'll at least probably give you a straight answer, if they can't easily fix.

Does comcast block all VPN's?

They don't block mine, but I do believe they throttle.

UK here, Netflix allow multi viewers but are also looking to block use of VPN this is to limit people from circumventing regional licensing arrangements.Europe USA. etc.IIRC the pressure is coming from the studios.
Guardian on UK Netflix
