The ISP can terminate for any violation of their TOS just like they always could............. That part of the law is rather specific.

You probably would need to go through the proper hoops to prove to them that the list is opt-in in order to get on their whitelist.

Since ISP is a commercial organisation, they can block whatever they want.
