Re: What are the terms of the contract?
That's pretty clear.
That's also why I said that folks should actually read the TOS before signing on.
However, a point I was trying to make is that this TOS for example, is far too restrictive as to how the service is used.
But, because of lack of choices, people will sign on and then abuse the service sometimes, even if the provider has suffered no real repercussions from it, which in this case, they haven't.
Choice an competition would help to put a real dent in this kind of behavior, because if there was real competition, then companies are far less likely to have such restrictive provisions in their TOS in order to lure the most customers.
This is just another effect of monopoly of the broadband market, but I am not trying to cast off those who would just steal anyway.
Some people will always steal things.
These corporations are not beyond it either. I think this case is still mostly about greed and nothing else.
