That still doesn't hide the IP you are connecting to unless you are on a VPN. They still know that if you are connecting to 209.216.230.240, it _could_ be hacker news. With the widespread use of CDNs, and hosting of multiple services on a single IP, this won't be 100% accurate, but the ISP can still connect the dots I guess
