Arstechnica also wrote about this: "The US Senate today voted to eliminate
broadband privacy rules that would have required ISPs to get consumers'
explicit consent before selling or sharing Web browsing data and other
private information with advertisers and other companies."

I don't understand how ISPs can sell users' private data to advertisers, when
people are already paying money for the service?!
