The first two parties to a communication are the sender and the
addressee, so the ISP is a third party.  So if the ISP looks at content
(the port number) to determine whether to do any of those things that's
interception (just to be clear: doing those things isn't interception,
but looking at content to decide what to do is).  Or maybe the ISP isn't
a third party, in which case it isn't interception - does the act make
it clear what third party means?
