This isn't talking about the web services you use though. This isn't about Facebook or some social media site you sign up for. This is about your ISP. You're provider. All traffic goes through your provider and your provider has access to information beyond a social networking site or site that you may visit on the web.
They are literally your gateway to the internet right from the start. They are your first link to everything else you do online. They see everything. Not just for what you are doing but anyone else on your connection too. All devices that are using that gateway, everything.

You thought you had privacy before this bill!?
If it can be networked it can be hacked.
If it has a point of origin it can be traced.
If it is encrypted it can be un-encrypted.
End users only see what they are meant to see.

That is such a cop-out. How are you going to feel when they sell YOUR information (good or bad) to someone legally and with impunity without you even knowing about it?
This is like saying "if you have nothing to hide then you have nothing to fear", such a dumb argument.
I guarantee if it were Democrats who signed this bill the same people defending this would be getting their ropes ready to hang people.

That doesn't change the fact that if he signs it he will have been part of it so you reminding the OP "that the President does not make the law, so this is not 'thanks to Trump'." is wrong.
