How Do I Measure My Use

I don't like the idea of a service provider of any kind - electricity, water, telephone, subscriptions, etc. not telling you first how to measure the product before restrictions are placed. I have no idea if I would be considered a low or heavy user since there is no "meter" to see what my consumption is before someone tells me I'm using "too much." Phone rates are in time and distance units even if I am not talking. Water has to be turned on and running. Before someone tells me THEIR measurement of my web use, I want to see the "meter" at my end. I don't trust the bastards. SO let's have an information campaign for the consumers so we can translate GB per month into a language of use we would understand.

I don't know how you will measure your use but have fun trying to predict your use (which is more important as a customer AFAIC).

This whole "bandwidth overage" model is flawed IMO. The reason being a lot of data is "pushed" to a user's box although the user did not ask for it.

AT&T is a horrible company. There is a AT&T regional building two blocks away from where I work. Would you guys like me to go egg it at lunch today?
