Anytime big corporations say this, I just kind of laugh and say, "So...you have nothing to hide, right?"
It reminds me of a kid telling their parents not to check on something because they know they'll get in trouble.
Of a kid? Were you that kid? Lol I know I was that dumbass kid on many occasions.
My nephew was completely convinced that when he lied his nose would grow like Pinocchio's so when he lied he'd cover his nose.
Out of nowhere, my kid would say "No poop" and start backing away. Obviously, he was full of shit just like these ISPs.
Me: Where did you put it?
My son: runs to the spot and stands in the way, so i can't see
Me: checkmate!
Ironic that megacorps get privacy rights they don't deserve while the rest of us get jack shit and are told we should be grateful for it.
That's the difference between the ruling class and us peasants.
