Why does it seem all the internet providers are turning into dicks?  Look what AT&T has decided to do:
www.engadget.com/2011/03/13/atandt-will-cap-dsl-u-verse-internet-and-impose-overage-fees/
And for those too lazy to read the artice:
"AT&T says it will implement a 150GB monthly cap on landline DSL customers and a 250GB cap on subscribers to U-Verse high speed internet starting on May 2nd. AT&T will also charge overage fees of $10 for every additional 50GB of data, with two grace periods to start out -- in other words, the third month you go over the cap is when you'll get charged. DSLReports says it has confirmation from AT&T that these rates are legitimate, and that letters will go out to customers starting March 18th. "

FUCK YOU!
And it's not like we can just switch services either.  When we had comcast the signal was so weak we would go for long periods of time (like, a week or more) without any internet at all on a regular basis.  And Verizon doesn't offer service out here, and neither do the other internet services.  For us it's AT&T, which is evil, or Comcast, which is evil and also unreliable.
