Oh ISPs are definitely collecting your browsing habits, and selling them to the highest bidder. It's one of the major reasons why I use a vpn.

- lukechu10 7mo agoWell what makes you think the VPN providers are not tracking? You would have to either self-host your own VPN server somewhere (maybe on a public cloud provider) or if you are truly paranoid, use something like Tor.
- wing-_-nuts 7mo agoThey have been subject to warrant requests, and had nothing to turn over. There are only a few vpn providers that I genuinely trust. (Mullvad, airvpn, etc) Really though, I am not worried about 3 letter agencies performing legitimate law enforcement duties. I am worried about corporations hovering up more data about me than I'd want to reveal, and either using that as a basis to charge me more, or worse, they get hacked, and that data is used by bad actors to target me.
