Really what it comes down to is AT&T or any other carrier will embed pretty well whatever they like into the ToS until challenged otherwise. Since the services agreement is supposedly seen as a binding contract they think they can ask for whatever they like and if you agree you're screwed.
Really it doesn't quite work that way. But until they're challenged on it, it'll stand.
Pretty much SOP. Just like a company who tries to get you to sign non-compete sorry you can't work in your industry if you leave us for 6 mos crap when your state specifically forbids such actions.
What I'm surprised I haven't seen much of in this thread yet are the "you can always change carriers" people. They usually come out in droves for this type of thing. Oh and then the "consumer just doesn't want to pay" crowd. They're usually in this talk too.  -- TheGlobalMind.com | Speed costs money.
