Three. Don't forget the website, itself.
Well, maybe four or five or ten. Don't forget all of the advertisements and beacons on the site you're visiting.
Well, maybe also Google, if you're using Chrome.
Oh, and maybe everybody, unless everything you're doing is always encrypted and it's through a VPN service that doesn't maintain any logging and isn't subject to government subpoena and can be thoroughly trusted.
Frankly, if your ISP can see it, then who cares who else along the chain does? Nobody else providing a service that can see your data is going to do anything with it that Comcast, Cox, Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, CenturyLink, and Frontier isn't already doing.
- mike-cardwell 13y agoNone of the examples you have supplied are equivalent or relevant. My point stands: If you use DNSCrypt+OpenDNS in order to try and hide your browser history from your ISP, not only will you not succeed, but you will make matters worse.
- pstack 13y agoRight. My point was simply that there's little point to them being concerned about their ISP in the first place if they're exposed elsewhere along the chain (unless they're simply worried about being locked-down from accessing certain servers for some reason, I guess?).
