My advice to users is to get yourselves a decent VPN provider. Then all your ISP and every other external source sees is your VPN address.

I connect to my ISP and then sign into my VPN
VPN company change my IP address
All sites visited only see my VPN address which is shared among about 5 other machines and also changes every connect (a lot of VPN providers do not keep logs)
The ISP only see one connection from you to the VPN. They never see where you have visited and what you have done and the sites you visit never see your real IP.

Wait, what? a VPN would hide the AMMOUNT of traffic that you make?
I know it hides WHAT you're doing, but how much...that sounds very improbable to me

vpn not hiding my traffic still coming up on my broadband allowance

vpn only changes your ip address, it will slow your connection down too
