| Call your Reno, NV or Beaumont,TX AT&T rep and cancel If you let them continue, they will spread this to other cities, and you will have a "class" based system of internet access. Those who can afford more data per and those who can't. Only higher income will eb able to afford the "best" part of the web (HD VOD/etc).
Since the Bell's could not force net neutrality, they did the next best thing, metered usage. And like metered usage, it should become a "utility" and thus be regulated.
I called my AT&T rep and told them to stop this idea in Reno and Beaumont, and if it continues, I will cancel my phone line, my long distance, and my DSL thru AT&T. I will get a dryloop Covad line then let AT&T continue to do this nonsense to people. They say that 5% of users are causing havoc, then AT&T, hey deal with them and do not let the rest of us have to suffer.
Reno/Beaumont users, when you are canceling your DSL service, let them know why and that the metered usage is a joke.
You can find alternate ISP's here:

There may in fact be AT&T reseller ISP's who resell AT&T DSL, without the metered billing, but be sure to ask and get it in writing. | |

Make it an "utility" then of course it will be metered just like my electric, gas, and water. And since I don't pay for unlimited wireless you might as well throw that in there too. | |
