As long as the profit from doing shady things and lying is greater then
the cost of settling a lawsuit, companies will be dishonest and do shady
things.
So, no, I don't believe threat of litigation is any barrier to how ISPs

fuck-consumer the current climate is from the govt, its just going to
get worse.
