comcast is part of the similar corpo shit salad
ISPs will send warnings but i don't think they will anything beyond that. they don't want waste their money defending another corpo's "property"
a good VPN is worth every penny, since otherwise all your browsing data is being sold to data brokers.
It might be being sold even with a VPN, since VPNs aren't really a privacy product in and of themselves. They need to be combined with other practices to be effective in that regard.
For example, for social media like YouTube, I sandbox it inside a browser container, then blacklist any scripts from them anywhere else on the web using uBO. So javascript from Google can run inside the YouTube container, but if a page tries to load a Google script on another site, it never connects. Google can't track me across the web, because the only site they ever see me on is YouTube, and not through my actual IP even then. And it probably goes without saying, but I use a throwaway Google account for YouTube. I make fun of Zios a lot online, so if I ever get banned, I can be back on YouTube in a couple minutes without there being any real consequences.
