    1) Your ISP always knows your IP address. If not, you would not be able to access the internet, that's why they are called Internet Service Providers.

    2) Your ISP can't directly tell what you are downloading if you've enabled encryption, and even if you haven't they don't use your IP address to find out that info.

    Consequently I don't think that hiding your IP address is what you need. If you rephrase your question to state what you are trying to achieve rather than trying to find a solution to a non-existent problem you have a better chance of getting helpful replies.

    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
