Can you be more specific about your setup? If your node resides at your home network, your provider sees only the traffic, which goes out and in, passing your internet-link router. Your provider sees your router's MAC and sets your external IP-address, so he knows both. As long you haven't set any port forwarding (allowing inbound connections on your router), nobody from the outside can see, if any ports are open within your local network. Only if your router is compromised, either by remote controlled auto-updating (your provider) or by using an exploit (a random attacker), it is possible to enable remote login for watching your local network traffic at the end. -- BlueStar88 0x36150C86 (PGP)
