Transaction time - what's in my traffic?

This question is valid for every cryptocurrency, based on bitcoin. When sending a transaction, and there is a man-in-the-middle attack going on, what they would see in my traffic? For example a fraud VPN provider (my worry) or even the ISP. As I understand it, a transaction message is signed with my private key, but the private key itself never leaves my local machine? Is that correct? Can someone do evil things with a spyed transaction information or manipulate it?
