Re: Sketchy

Exactly. It wasn't part of the terms mentioned as acceptable OR prohibited. Since it wasn't mentioned at all, one would assume that it is ok.
while I personally agree with you, the law is
"ignorance is no excuse of the law"

BTW, you know what happens when you ASSUME, don't you?

I agree with your quote, but if ATT omitted to say it was allowed or prohibited, then it is not a "law"

True. And even if it were explicitly stated, it would be a "Term of Service," not a law. But I'm splitting hairs.

reply to Maccawolf
When there was no 'law', AT&T essentially allowed it. Typically AT&T and many others tend to blanket cover themselves (i.e. 'anything other than WAP / MMS / SMS covered by MEdia Net is forbidden, such as VoIP, p2p, or anything 'we' deem bad'.
This is something that I would have expected out of AT&T.
