Sidestepping traffic shaping/throttling?

So, I stumbled upon this little website, while searching for ways to improve my unstable connection.
It apparently promises to, alongside keeping your information private, to let you avoid your ISP's traffic shaping and throttling. Now, I'm rather wary of this whole thing, as even being a layman, it sounds a bit too good to be true. Wouldn't I be forwarding all my information through their servers?
I'm also not getting good vibes on the whole "Buyers Wanted" posted in their home page.
Has anyone ever used this service? Is it worthwhile? Is it effective?

Of course, do realize you will be solely responsible for fucking over other peoples connections for your own gain. There will be suffering.
What?
