Now that AT&T Southeast, formerly Bellsouth, is now under the AT&T TOS, all server restrictions are lifted. So if we want to host our "personal" web page from home we can.
No, they just simplified the terms to a more restrictive broadly worded clause.. Effectively banning all unattended P2P applications, this would include torrents, WWW, FTP, SMTP, etc..

from the AT&T's new TOS..

"12. Restrictions on Use & Storage, Prohibition on Resale"

"You agree that the Service is not to be used to host peer-to-peer application that you are not actively using. You agree that the Service is not to be used to trunk or facilitate public Internet access (“Hotspots”) or any other public use of the Service."

What exactly is a "peer-to-peer application that you are not actively using"?

How do they know that I'm not sitting in front of my computer while I'm seeding a torrent?
