In February 2004, the FBI sent Merrill a secret "national security letter" (not an actual court order signed by a judge) asking for confidential information about his customers and forbidding him from disclosing the letter's existence. He enlisted the ACLU to fight the gag order, and won. A federal judge barred the FBI from invoking that portion of the law, ruling it was "an "unconstitutional prior restraint of speech in violation of the First Amendment." Merrill's identity was kept confidential for years as the litigation continued. In 2007, the Washington Post published his anonymous op-ed which said: "I resent being conscripted as a secret informer for the government," especially because "I have doubts about the legitimacy of the underlying investigation." He wasn't able to discuss his case publicly until 2010. yay Patriot Act!!   |

I really hope that company can succeed and start a new business model for other ISPs.
I fear that instead of being a privacy outlet, they'll be labeled a rogue ISP by the RIAA/MPAA and fought in court. Plus the opposition from all those 3 letter acronym .gov organizations that don't want you to have ANY privacy.

CISPA would probably kill this idea.
