Do you use a VPN?

Many paid VPNs have a no-logging policy and don't keep any of the sensative data, some throw everything away and others only keep basic IP information (like mine) either way if they sell or give your data away they will cross the policy you as a payer have made with them, they have policies in place that prevent them from selling out their customers so what you are saying isn't true. A ISP cannot see your data anymore since a tunnel is set up with encryption between you and the VPN so you are not right. When you use a quality VPN your data WILL be hidden.

@Bold You can't make that assumption until you truly see how the hosts internally operates ... 

I also didn't make the point that ISPs will see your data, just strawman on your part and what's not right is your assertion that your data will stay hidden since you're still at the mercy of VPN hosts ... 

Vivster is right that this is just bullshit and pure VPN marketing ... 

I'm supposed to trust my privacy to a policy that could be potentially broken at any point in given time ? (their word is not good enough, the VPN hosts need to be an open community and transparent too in order to fully place my trust in them) 

VPNs have slower connection and I'm not OK with lower performance since I only find my ISP service to be passable as it is ... (I can't imagine how unbearably bad it is with VPNs and do they have data caps too ? If so then big minus right there.) 

VPNs are tied to their geopolitical location which means that if you ever want to access content from another country you'll have to switch to another VPN that is based around that country ... 

IMO, it's not worth forking over more of my cash just for 'promises' of privacy ... 

I understand you don't want to, thats fine.
But a promise and contract with a paid VPN for privacy seems better then the knowledge you have no privacy, to some.
