Overreacting a little as there are hundreds of thousands of customers and they really have no interest (and though they have the ability, probably not the expertise) in looking at individual's accounts. They have to cover their legal behinds is all and protect their business interests. So, it is very much about them and not really about you at all. They are not reading your stuff or even thinking of you as a person but as "traffic" patterns. The most they are doing is probably, high up in the cable chain (not your apartment building tom, richard, or harry) is monitoring your traffic, making sure none of it comes or goes from/to known international bad guys. This is done anyway, in ways we laymen don't know/understand. Welcome to the digital age. No one knows "you" come here, much less reads what you say or is said to you. It's about your computer/connection. I think of the ways "they" protect me from the bad guys rather than what it might be possible for them to do.
