I mean, not necessarily in that case I'd imagine, since one presumably pays the ISP for internet services, so any "free" things bundled with it could also simply be priced into that contract already.
That ToS definitely gives them the right to sell whatever data you provide to them though, at least in the US.
Sure, but won't that happen regardless of if you use their email service or not?
Yes. The point I was saying stands is the "paying with data" bit more than the "free (as in beer)" bit. I know youre still paying to use an ISP :p
