So far as the internet knows from my IP address, I've not been in Texas for years. VPNs are crucial for navigating the modern internet, and not just for porn. Why should my ISP be able to sell my browsing history when I'm paying for the service?
Because it, quite unethically, is in the EULA none of us are equipped to read.
Terrible article that doesn't even speculate about how it's going to change the way we use the internet.
