Hmmmm,

And by the way, you can get content without the ISP monitoring it
That depends on what you mean by "content" and what you mean by "monitoring"???

Over here ISPs do not monitor content............ they just need to know who you want to contact so that they can manage your dialogue for you...........

So, if you want an HTTP tunnel or a proxy server, that is what you get connected to........... they log what you connected to and when, but they don't know where you went from there or what you were doing. Why should they? after all there is no government requirement for it and no money in it for them

There is one comment I will make though............. by being surreptitious (like using proxies and encryption) you really are lighting up a big neon sign?
