Wow. That is quite coincidence. Can you ask your friend to contact
CenturyLink and ask them why this happened. It appears no one has

I didn't get the OP's e-mail, but (assuming this is in US) customers have a lot of leverage. Just keep tor and torrent clients running, and call their customer service, and demand an explanation why the service they charge you money for doesn't work. Let them send the live technician to fix the problem. Escalate this as much as possible. Eventually they will have to fix your connection (with the mentioned services running). And if they don't, you can sue them in small claims court and demand compensation for all time, effort, suffering, emotional distress, deprivation of service, etc, etc, etc. And you will likely easily win the case.

Just trying to work around the problem in technical ways with bridges, Pluggable Transport, trying to hide tor traffic isn't necessarily the right way to deal with the problem.
