Yes I understand that.  But what if the ISP uses traffic shaping to lag down the bitcoin mining network?

Bitcoin reaches more popularity over time.   Banks start to feel the pressure.  Somehow banks develop a relationship with North American ISPs to start traffic shaping Bitcoin confirmation/mining/processing traffic.   Think this is possible?   That would put a dent in the Bitcoin network as far as transaction processing/confirmations go.  Thoughts?
