This pisses me off, as I did not knowingly agree to have my traffic sniffed and hijacked by Cincinnati Bell/Zoomtown.

Obviously, if they are looking at invalid URL's, they are looking at valid ones too - who is to say they aren't logging every single thing you do?

I apologize if this is old news and/or not considered a big deal, but it is surprising to me.
