1. It is not like they are going to do away with ads, so they might as well be targeted.

2. it is not like they are the only company to track your habits in order to solicit to you. I am sure everyone loves the frequent shopper cards that many restaurants and stores have. Don't you think there is more information on that card that you know?

Yes, but on those cards you have the option to fill them out.

hmmm, it is weird how much of a fuss people put up when they are being watched. Why are they so worried if they are innocent. and don't get me wrong I enjoy my privacy as much as the next guy.

imo the ISP is wrong to do this for "better ads" I think if it were the government trying to catch a Terrorist then it'd be acceptable but you'd still have many people who get their panties in a bunch...

Why are they so worried if they are innocent.

Because knowledge is power and the more someone knows about you the more influence ( good and bad) they can exert upon you.
