First, they have to know who you are to validate you're allowed to use their 
network, right?  You log in with name and password.

Second, they keep it because when the police show up and say "Hey, someone 
broke into the NSA servers from IP address x.x.x.x at yy:yy" and the ISP 
says "Sorry, can't help you", the ISP gets in trouble.

   The NFL should go international. I'd pay to
   see the Detroit Lions vs the Roman Catholics.
