"I'd even be willing to fork over money to my ISP if they would, internally, VPN any of the traffic I _did_ send through them."

If your ISP does the VPN for you, that means they see all your traffic in clear and the can monetize that information (which is the point of the article).

To be effective, VPN must start at your computer (or at the gate of your house).
