A fair point.
Still, in this case you should direct your issue to your country's consumer protection and culture protection services. Since they are essentially charging you for an incomplete service.
Of course, there's other measures that one can take by themself to route around the issue, such as using a VPN. But they don't deal with the real issue at hand that is what the thread title says: that the ISP is doing something that it shoudn't.
It sounds like you're not from the US. Our consumer protection services ara a joke. You're more likely to solve the problem by yelling into a pillow than complaining to US consumer protection.
You mean the Casper Original Pillow I'm buying with Klarna for 4 easy payments of $39.95 at 29.99% interest?
I hear they're partnering with Amazon on a new version that has a tiny Alexa speaker in it that will whisper ads in your ear while you're sleeping unless you pay them $15 to turn it off. It's called the Casper Pillow Talk with Special Offers.
Yelling: ALEXA! HOW CAN I GET CONSUMER PROTECTION IN THE UNITED STATES?
Casper Pillow Talk with Special Offers: I'm sorry, I don't understand. By the way, did you know that Amazon Pharmacy is now selling antidepressants at a discounted price? To order, just say "Add Xanax to my next drone delivery". To receive the discount, say "I waive my right to sue Amazon via the justice system and agree to private corporate arbitration until the end of time!"
