ISPs should calculate how much this will make them then charge us that much to opt out. Wins all around - the ISP makes every dime they can, privacy-conscious customers aren't abused, unconscious customers don't need to pay more.
Hell, take it a step farther - sell VPN-like anonymization. Think about it, your ISP is technically able to do it far better than any VPN: no impact on speed, no impact on latency, no software required, wouldn't miss any types of traffic, and increases anonymity just by having more customers.
If ISPs don't realize that they can make money selling privacy then they're just bad businesses.
