A comment on We Have 24 Hours to Save Online Privacy Rules. Parent comment
Fact 1: Google sees very huge part of the Internet traffic through AdSense and Analytics and other smaller tools like fonts, scripts etc.
Fact 2: Google has access to more detailed traffic given SSL makes most traffic (thankfully so) opaque to a ISP.
Fact 3: ISP only sees its own traffic but Google has access to the traffic from multiple ISPs.
This does not mean that we should give the same advantage to ISP, quite contrary - we should take this advantage from Google (and everyone).
