They are essentially equating 'business' with 'VPN provider'.
Not at all surprised. Many moons ago, I had a Tor *relay* running on one machine in my home network, and Hulu decided that my connections from a *different* home machine were "VPN". Now, if I were running a Tor *exit* node, I'd be totally OK with them rejecting my non-Tor connections because they were NATed to the same outside IP address - but Hulu should never have seen any packets from the relay and if I *was* using a VPN I'd have a *different* IP address. Near as I could determine, they were screen scraping the list of Tor relays and conflating them with exit nodes. Never did figure out if it was stupidity or malice driving that.
