I would prefer they replace use of the phrase "lawful internet
traffic"; with "Internet traffic not prohibited by law and not
related to a source, destination, or type of traffic prohibited
specifically by provider's conspiciously published terms of service."
The use of the phrase "LAWFUL" introduces ambiguity, since any
traffic not specifically authorized by law could be said to be
unlawful.
Something neither prohibited nor stated to be allowed by law is by
definition.... Unlawful as well....
