Because each time you connect, your ISP assign you an IP address, and then you
are accessible through this address. I recommand installing a good firewall on
your box.

He can't do anything. Once connected, you may offer services to others, and ISP
is not blocking anything. Close unwanted ports. Your ISP can probably not
install a firewall to protect your machine.
