"N.B. I also recall BT redirecting requests for non-existent domains to some partner of theirs, I assume experimentally as I haven't seen or heard of that for a while"

They are still doing this. I ran into it just yesterday. They do however make it very easy (click a couple of links) to turn it off.



Still, interception of communications is a serious crime (unless your monopoly-scale ISP does it, of course).

Thanks for the update (if somewhat depressing to know they still get away with it).
