d (npub1806…dzue) I am still :ablobcatsweatsip: ing (npub1y6t…9wl9) isp's generally have to follow similar rules as phone companies, which in the us have pretty hard requirements for a warrant due to past precedence with wire tapping cases. VPN even of foreign countires have reputation incentives to go ahead and work with government. You start saying no to governments they can try to fuck with you and your business in other ways even if it is foreign. They might also just morally agree with what ever the requested information is for. Really i dont think one option over the other provides extreme differences in protection in the general use case sense. Either way you are just giving your packet with the last layer of obfuscation and encryption to another computer in the case of vpn's, at least its probably just a mostly dumb switch that has it with the ISP case and you are keeping it to one company.
