So, because you pay for the service, it's ok for your infected computer to waste their bandwidth for malicious purposes? If you keep your system clean, like you should, you shouldn't have any problems. So what's the big deal?
Isp violating my privacy but seeing what is coming out of my computer. Most ips do not monitor virusses, spywares. So what do u think most people will do? That is right switch to another isp and continue on surfing the net
lol, they're not sitting there in cubicles personally monitoring your traffic. This would obviously be an automated system that would only pick up malicious traffic, which is the entire purpose of the thing. I have to laugh at people who think everyone is out to get them. Seriously, think about it for 5 minutes.

Personally, i'd rather be with an ISP that is at least taking a proactive approach at keeping their network clean, while also helping educate the person harboring the infected machine.
