As Snowden, Assange, and other whistleblowers have shown, in The Land of the Free™ the carriers are in bed with the government. I doubt it’s all that different in other Five/Nine/Fourteen Eyes countries.
I'd imagine it's more or less the same all over, as long as the government can put pressure (or directly owns) the ISP.
