AT&T with their NSA/Filter/blocking on one side.

COX on the other with their oh-so-generous 40GB per month data transfer cap. I guess most COX users are "Bandwidth Hogs" eh?

I'm tired of being the football to be punted around. I'd like some real service, real options, and real technology for my real money these companies keep taking.

we pay for it but they don't own us but they think they do :uhh:

Money from every direction. Anything that doesn't pay or become 'approved' is deemed to be pirate and violates TOS.

Great analogy. Take it one step further once the practice is established. The ISPs extort money from smaller web apps to be "verified" through their filter system.

Do you still think broadband is a privalege, and if so, are you happy with this type of topic?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19406946 Thu, 08 Nov 2007 14:23:14 EDT Re: This is one of the many reasons http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19406890 N3OGH : The death star strikes again...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19406890 Thu, 08 Nov 2007 14:13:13 EDT Re: This is one of the many reasons http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19406835 en102 : Yup...

On one side: Comcast
High(er) speeds, high(er) prices, Sandvine, caps

On the other side: AT&T
Low(er) speeds, low(er) prices, NSA/Hollywood sniffing alliance, Microsoft IPTV (I wonder if the STB's track TV watching through Cookies).
