I suspect that it it the government that is spying on the citizens on behalf of AT&T.

I have Vonage. I really like it. they never bother you, you pay very little and get excellent service. you don't pay for long distance or for local calls and it's like you never really think about it.

"It's astonishing the arrogance of corporate America"

------------------------------

John, If i could offer a correction, the corporatist are mere puppets of the Oligarchy. It''s bigger then just mere corporatist. We are facing an insurmountable enemy. We need to start thinking on a higher level then just the corporatist.

The crisis we face as a nation-state is the power in the hands of a few, who control our monetary system, it is the mother load of all heists whats been happening in the last year. It doesn't help that the treasonous media has capitulated to the oligarchy. It is a coup'd'tat that happened around the turn of the century. That is the real history of this nation, not what so many here have been spoon fed by the 'British' educational system we have copied.

The "FREE TRADE" theology has been the enemy for 200 years. We were fighting FREE TRADE in 1776 and we are fighting it again.

The purveyors of FREE TRADE were the British Empire, and the purveyors of Free Trade now are the REPUKES, NEOCONS, & CONSERVATIVE RIGHT WINGERS. I'll include in that list the DEM party.

This nation will die from the inside, not from enemy's abroad. Therein lies the crux of where we are at. So lets get our enemy's name's correct. Because they don't care if they get called arrogant, they hold the strings and they are willing to kill for any reason, whether subtle or overt.

why are we so powerless against these entities. since when did the rights of corporate entities eclipse the rights of the individual? isn't this 2500-page service agreement an infringement on the rights of the people? i mean, how else do you read a 2500-page agreement other than encroachment on the individuals rights? this shit has gone into perverse levels.

with all this crap going on... war, economy, gas, this phony baloney biblical size agreement ... im just going to wait for a meteor to strike and wipe out the human race. at this point, i don't even know if we deserve to exist. i give up.

That's ridiculous. Nice move giving these crooks immunity Hoyer and the blue dogs. I will finally look at Vonage now although it does bother me that we can't have competing land line phone service in the same area.

Stuff like this is kinda scary. Since we're down to like 3 major mobile carriers, companies like AT&T are increasingly more powerful than they used to be. Luckily there are people out there who care and contest them on this kinda crap on our behalf. It's frightning to think about what they would get away with if people weren't keeping an eye on this kinda anti-consumer nonsense that they try to pull.

I am very proud to say that I no longer have AT&T products in my house!

And yes, part of my decision was based on their handing over of records....

That's a lot of paper! How many reams of paper can be manufactured from one tree? There are 500 sheets of paper in a ream; 5 reams in one copy of the regulations. If they print 1,000 copies of the regulations, they've used 5,000 reams of paper. How many trees were harvested to make that paper? and how many American lives were harvested in the wars that made ATT possible? This is not good. The absence of good, according to the Church Fathers, is evil. Therefore, is it unreasonable to say that ATT is evil?
Let's ask a distinguished theologian like . . . hum . . . can't think of any. Sorry.

AT&T sucks. They know they've got you by the balls and you can't do a thing about it. We just agreed to start a contract for wireless service. When I purchased the service, the sales rep told me it would be $25/month and that service would be turned on July 28. They didn't get service turned on until late Aug (b/c although they had sent the equipment to the correct address, they had the wrong address...don't know where they got it...for service and billing...so yes, we were also late on paying a bill). Well, we got the first bill and it is $35/month and they cannot honor the $25 that I was told it would be. If it was At&t up against John McCain in this election, I would vote for McCain...hands down.

Did you see the TOS at NBC's Olympics site? I'm pretty sure they had the right to turn you over to the Chinese if your post was determined to be offensive. 7013 words, 15 pages. I passed.
