Indeed, Facebook, in particular, has been on the receiving end of a litany of fines related to data collection and usage abuses.<\/p>\n<p>In 2017, a French court levied the maximum fine against Facebook for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/3197011\/facebook-hit-with-maximum-fine-for-breaking-french-privacy-law.html\">six breaches of the country\u2019s privacy laws<\/a>, including tracking users across websites without their knowledge and building a massive database of personal information in order to further its targeted advertising scheme.<\/p>\n<p>Just last month, a Belgian court threatened Facebook with a fine of up to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-facebook-belgium\/facebook-loses-belgian-privacy-case-faces-fine-of-up-to-125-million-idUSKCN1G01LG\">100 million euros ($125 million)<\/a> for tracking internet users on third-party websites in violation of the European Union\u2019s privacy laws.<\/p>\n<p>Google\u2019s record is not much better. The company has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-privacy-google-dutch\/google-faces-18-million-fine-for-web-privacy-violations-dutch-watchdog-idUSKBN0JT1TG20141215\">hit with<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-spain-google-privacy\/spain-privacy-watchdog-fines-google-for-breaking-data-law-idUSBRE9BI12Z20131219\">several fines<\/a> over the years for breaching privacy laws and failing to inform customers clearly about how it uses their data.<\/p>\n<p>However, the survey respondents rightly recognized that ISPs present an even greater threat to online privacy. ISPs have access to a staggering amount of data on your unencrypted browsing habits \u2014 data that could be sold to advertisers or in theory even individuals.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright holders have used this data to sue individuals who accessed or shared pirated content online, and privacy advocates also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eff.org\/free-speech-weak-link\/isp\">warn<\/a> that governments could use it as a pretense to allege that individuals should have their internet access revoked.<\/p>\n<p>Users can \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/information-technology\/2017\/04\/after-vote-to-kill-privacy-rules-users-try-to-pollute-their-web-history\/\">pollute<\/a>\u201d their unencrypted browsing data \u2014 thus making it less useful to advertisers \u2014 by using tools designed to use up your extra bandwidth to pad your internet history with websites you did not actually visit.
