Residential ISPs are well setup for monitoring home traffic (and legally required to in most places). A VPS in a different jurisdiction is vastly less likely to be good at it.

It is all metadata at this point. With statistical monitoring and sharing of netflow data, there is no anonymity on the internet.

Entire businesses specialize in this; Nokia and Kentik.
