Re: Just wrong.

I agree, it should be illegal for them to do this. It should be illegal for them to do anything with our packets, but pass them along to the next router that does the same.

And you can't really opt out, because the moment they start to do it, you are trapped in the system. You might be able to opt out after the fact, but data has already changed hands.

You should need a court order to do this kind of invasion of privacy.
