Caveat, it is appropriate for specific sites to have control over contents, for example, a Christian Site may choose not to allow content they find offensive and contrary to their site. Providers may not censor which sites or what content is place on a given site, nor listen in, in any metaphorical way. They are like a telephone. They provide a service and have no right to interfere. They are allowed a privilege to make money off public infrastructure that perhaps should be run as a Utility instead.
