You can?t sue someone because they do something you do not like. Well, you can, but you won?t win.
I guess you could ask for the providers to put it in their terms of service so you have something actionable to sue on. Now see my previous post. I tell my provider ?put in a clause that says you won?t sell my data?. They reply ?no?. And I do ? what exactly?
. . . . . . . . .
Not sure we will get closure here. Some people think ISPs should be allowed to see data. Others do not. I am in the latter camp. The law is on the desk of POTUS which will do exactly what I do not want. My guess is he will sign it.
Posting to NANOG will not change that. Shall we agree to disagree and move on?
