A wee bit sanctimonious perhaps
"There's always another ISP out there to use though. I pay for my service and as a customer there's various things I expect from them as a business."
Ok, but they have the right to expect a few things from you as well, the core of which is in the AUP, which you seem to feel is only an option. It ain't. You entered into a business relationship with your ISP, a relationship that you both entered into freely and can both exit freely. A relationship with rules which you broke first. Some fairly kind folks here have suggested ways for you to deal with this problem - getting a hold of your ISP to explain the situation, using a work-provided ISP - but these are only workarounds for a problem you created yourself.
"I may be in the wrong...But thats irrelevant"
No, it's not. You have asked for help and if you are wrong it is certainly not our fault if we point that out. After all you asked for the help!
"Please only post if you have suggestions for what my ISP may be doing to make my sessions thru anonymous proxies not anonymous"
Before anyone can deal effectively with the technical issues you are raising you need to deal with the ethical issues about your actions that your question raises.
"The internet was founded on anonimity. "
No, it was not. It was founded to allow government and research universities to communicate on cold war research. It was also designed to withstand atomic warfare and so included protocols to allow a message to be divided into small pieces that could, each, take a unique path to the destination in case of damage to the infrastructure. This design spec eventually led to ways to anonymize communications, but anonimity was not an original design spec of the internet - quite the opposite. The internet was designed to be a secure communications layer that included only known and trusted communicators.
