The solution seems simple enough... don't get cable.  :-)  I don't have it 
myself -- probably saves me hours a week that I'd otherwise spend watching 
reruns of Gilligan's Island or something.

IMO, the real question is... what is your ISP tracking?   Is Prodigy.net 
tracking your web use?  Did your visit to busty_babes_&_lusty_lasses.com 
last night at 4 in the morning get added to your user profile?
(Or perhaps that gayspermbank.com one that has a brin site on it?)

And what are they going to do with this oh-so-precious information?  (If we 
get a vote, I want them to send me free samples of the stuff I'm surfing 
around looking at.)
