Why use a second-level ISP

Internet Service Providers in most countries now log all incoming and outgoing data, downloads and uploads, emails and files transferred, for an unlimited period of time. As of Dec.14th, 2005 the EU Parliament passed a law calling for the European Union ISP's to retain certain records for at least six months. The following data will be saved by ISP's.

Each website ever visited with time and date stamp. Each file ever downloaded using FTP or P2P.A record of every e-mail sent and received, including the e-mail content.
The name, time, date, etc of every user who chatted with via an Internet Messaging program, including the logs of the chats.Each web forum posted on or visited.Those laws have been deemed as "anti-privacy" by many human rights activists, business people, corporations and individuals because they can be used against citizens in a variety of cases.
