If I host a Quake 3 server I’m in violation of the TOS.

It can be argued that using a browser or any other client violates that language by sending responses to requests.

The ISP won’t do squat if it’s encrypted; they have no idea who is being connected to and what’s being sent.

A TOS is as broad and vague as they can make it. A good lawyer could undermine such language if it went to court.

Ultimately the TOS exists so the provider can discontinue your service, so it doesn't have to be super tight legally.
