My Suspicions

I suspect that one reason they aren't admitting is that not only will the ISPs receive negative PR but you can just bet that eventually one or more will be sued for this practice.

I suspect that first in line will be the EFF suing to learn the identity of these participating ISPs and to learn the details of the participation.

I suspect that an affected user will eventually sue and here is where things will get interesting during discovery.

I suspect that some lawyer will eventually argue that such participation negates the ISP's safe harbor protection. This may also make things interesting.
