isp - Jargon File (4.4.4, 14 Aug 2003) :

  ISP
   /I.S.P/
  
     Common abbreviation for Internet Service Provider, a kind of company
     that barely existed before 1993. ISPs sell Internet access to the
  mass
     market. While the big nationwide commercial BBSs with Internet access
     (like America Online, CompuServe, GEnie, Netcom, etc.) are
  technically
     ISPs, the term is usually reserved for local or regional small
     providers (often run by hackers turned entrepreneurs) who resell
     Internet access cheaply without themselves being information
  providers
     or selling advertising. Compare NSP.
