History and Anti-Phishing

I'm at a loss to understand how monitoring my browsing history will protect me from Phishing exploits. The last company I'd trust with protecting me from Phishing attacks is someone compiling information on my browsing habits to sell to the highest bidder.

I just want my ISP to deliver the bits.
1) I don't want them to protect me from objectionable material.
2) I don't want them to spy on me and provide my browsing habits to the government.
3) I don't want them to suggest which web site I may mean if I mistype a URL.
4) I don't want them to monitor download/uploads because it might infringe on RIAA/MPAA material.
5) I don't want them to prohibit VPNs on residential accounts because "that is business class usage."
6) I don't want third parties to compile information on me to inundate me with even more advertising.

Currently we are in the market to upgrade our TV and over-the-air antenna system, repair a 25 year old electric dryer, and install a while house sediment filter. Using the power of the Internet I have managed to find out what I need to know about all these items without someone looking over my shoulder.

C'mon Tom...you know that's not nearly enough due diligencing...you need some middle man peering over your shoulder "selling" you on the FABs and injecting the FUD at appropriate junctures of the spiel.

Too bad. Start your own phone company or rent dark fiber and create a new internet, or get your party elected to 100% of congress. Can't do that? Too bad, were the govt.
