Now it really is time to go shopping for another provider or switch back to Earthlink.

My suggestion to ATT is, do not do it. Instead implement technology that can detect which customers are using P2P often. Generally these would be the culprits using more bandwidth that eats it up for the rest of us legitimate users Starting monitoring these and find out what the chances may be of them doing file sharing, watching TV online, and or using VOIP.

As for me I have been wanting an excuse to ditch ATT altogether. Unfortunately I am limited in my options. However I suggest to the rest of you notify them you do not like it and may switch. It is that important as we are going backwards and not forwards. Did you know in countries like South Korea connections of 100mbs are common?
