Re: ISP Privacy - does your isp do this???

Go back and reread the Telstra privacy info you provided.  It applies to 
*users* of their web site and not as an ISP.

Telstra as an ISP is known as BigPond.  You have to refer to your agreement 
with BigPond to determine what privacy rights you may/may not 
have.  Considering BigPond is wholly owned by Telstra, and Telstra is 
technically a government agency, don't assume you have much privacy 
anyway.  Read the fine print of your agreement.  If you have privacy now, 
expect the fine print to change.
