At the expense of customers.

Who a real company answers to:
1. Customers
2. Employees
3. Investors
Sorry, but ATT will loose more money than they make with trying to charge per byte. By the time they spend billions to upgrade all the their equipment to have fast enough processors to count all the good packets of data accurately competition will exist or we will have laws that will force them back to unlimited. Don't forget all the extra money spent to handle all the customer service problems and billing problems with per byte billing.
Per byte billing is a huge expense that a serious investor would not want to pay for.
A serious investor would rather not have ATT spend a fortune on extra expenses to try to implement a policy to nickel and dime customers, but would rather have them raise prices a little by taking advantage of their monopoly.
