Except this time your messenger is digital so there's no penalty if they get access to your raw data when you have to rely on their network for service. It's a federal offense for mail carriers to open a physical mail ... If you use an ISps network they have every right to know what the hell is going on in their servers ... |
Ahhh you just broke your own logic. Why exactly is it a federal offense for mail carriers to open a physical mail. What exactly prevent them from doing such things. Could it possibly be the same government that installed rules and regulations to prevent them from doing such a thing. It matters not the technology or the tool, you still vote for Representatives to install rules and regulations for the common people.
Who cares what the ISP believe they have as rights to do whatever they want with data that crosses their network. We do not live in a society where business can just do what the heck they want to do because he institute rules and regulations to prevent them from doing whatever they want. If ISP can do whatever they want then why we have rules and regulations that they cannot use a child data, medical records and other such data as they choose. In other words we as a society decides what business can and cannot do and we elect Representatives to support our beliefs. So if our Representatives are not doing the job we put in new ones that will.
Your whole argument is that people do business on so and so infrastructure so we need to just take it but you seem to forget that its our government that gives these companies the right to build such infrastructure, they police that infrastructure and create rules and regulations that guides what happens on that infrastructure. So no ISP do not have unilateral control of their product or infrastructure and we as a people can definitely make it known that if we do not like the decisions of our Representatives in government, we can elect ones that do.
