On top of client VPNs you might consider the possible other freebies from yr ISP such as router, WiFi access points and other network elements they provide you with. Set-op-boxes as well. All those equipments are absolutely ratting you as much as possible. Also any software including mobile apps they provide for support / billing / whatever.
I think I am not understanding this comment. I'm saying I don't trust the ISP. Why would I invade my house and phone with more of their gadgets?
They don’t provide you any equipment ? Then good. It’s very typical for them to do so.
