The title seem to suggest this has something to do with browser histories, but as far as I can tell from reading the article it's much worse: they want your ISP to keep a log of the web sites/other services you are using, and they want to get this log by simple request to your ISP (no VSL, subpoena, or warrant).
So restoring this option wouldn't help, maybe only using TOR or some VPN proxy would.

But the Internet doesn't require any of that, so we certainly shouldn't have ISPs logging all of our traffic, let alone turning records over without a warrant.

- ridgeguy 10y agoJacob Applebaum, one of Tor's developers, left recently under a cloud [1]. I've seen a statement by Mr. Applebaum that Tor operations will not be affected as a result of his departure. [1] https://blog.torproject.org/blog/statement https://blog.torproject.org/blog/statement
