Set up Tautulli and use the notification agent feature. Set up one notification on “Play start” to call a shell script that uses this command to set the alternative speed limits.

Right, this is exactly what I was saying. Plausible deniability because you know you’re not going to be able to fight to protect the data when they come knocking.
