This is not only about ISP's, hackers on the same network as you (e.g a coffee shop or train station WiFi) can inject malware into any unencrypted website they want. It doesn't matter if the site is not transferring passwords, even the simplest site with only contact information is today a target for MitM attacks.

Deprecating HTTP and moving to HTTPS does not only bring privacy and security, it is also shown - as long as you configure it correctly - to have major speed improvements. https://www.httpvshttps.com/
