Down-voted for posting a link to a privacy policy? Hmm. Ok.

My point had nothing to do with your ISP packet inspection argument (notice I didn't address it). I was providing a counter-point to the "Google is the largest advertising and user-tracking system online. I would only use those DNS servers as last resource." My comment was simply to refute your indication that Google might be associating DNS with advertising or user tracking. They don't.

Edit: Can someone explain why the down-votes? Do you just disagree?

That's why my comment said you were diverting the point of the discussion. We are discussing ways to hide content from ISPs.
They will still be learning a lot about users, just not adding that to their otherwise neat idea they have about who you are. You have two identities; they can track, study and serve each one, no probs.
Yep, down-voting isn't cool and I think bitskits has a valid opinion (even though I don't agree.)
