Current ISPs have to by law. Just incase you go on howtobeaterrorist.com and need to be stopped. It’s not overstepping at all. Definitely not.

ISPs still can track your online activity, it’s up to them whether or not they will store it

Yep, any time you have a traffic cap or bill for traffic you’ve got to have data to back up what you are billing for.

More recently CDN’s ( and widespread SSL adoption ) have made it a whole lot less obvious what sites the user is going to. I suspect that nice clearcut list of porn sites from 2007 would just look like some cloudflare, akamai and google these days.
