The US Congress repealed internet privacy protections, allowing ISP’s to sell your browsing data.
If you’re a website user, be sure to only use sites with https in the URL. This means ISP’s will only see generic information about your visit. Without https, the ISP’s can see EVERYTHING about your usage. And sell it to the highest bidder.
If you own a website, please install an SSL certificate. This will encrypt all data sent between your visitors and your server. Without SSL, the ISP’s can see EVERYTHING about your visitors. And sell it to the highest bidder.
Encryption is our friend. But ISP’s? Not so much.
p.s. Install a VPN, use Tor, and never forget you will be watched forevermore.
