- scarface74 8y agoNot always. The devices at the ISPs are basically a local cache. They don’t have devices at every ISP and all of their content isn’t on every device. But that’s really neither here nor there. I doubt very seriously that even if Amazon (AWS not the retail side) was snooping on customer data - which I believe they would be fool to do so - they couldn’t inspect the video stream to know what was playing where.
