New AT&T terms of service: We'll cut off your Internet connection for criticizing us

“Maybe it could be a group effort. Boston AT&T party, anyone?”

I’m with Clay. Please, I need the traffic bump that a letter from AT&T legal would provide.

“It's not about what you "pay for", it's about a company's freedom to police it's own service. You can't go into McDonalds, buy a Big Mac, use the Big Mac box to create a sign that says, "I HATE MCDONALDS" and then expect them to sell you another Big Mac.“


It’a always about price. And in your example, McDonald's doesn't make me sign a contract saying I can only eat their food and not go to any other fast food place for two years.

And why would I eat at McDonald's and then compain I hate it? I complain about AT&T but have to stay with them or pay an ETF to move elsewhere. I don;t have much choice. It's not like I can just switch without consequences due to the contract.

The bottom line is... I should be able to criticize whatever service it is I PAY for. BB, while an internet service, is essentially free. Like any blog or site where people talk about shit and things get heated, you should repespect the TOS. (AT&T's site is not a blog. It's a placeholder for their legal department to cover their ass.)

But when I pay for something like AT&T, which I currently do unfortunately, I'm saying what I want. Reading their TOS further and it indicates that even them cancelling your service on the grounds you made negative contacts still has no bearing on the rest of the contract. In other words, I'm assuming you still have to pay each month regardless.

Otherwise, if this is one way to get out of your contract without paying an ETF, I'm guessing there’s going to be a lot of ‘AT&T sucks’ posts from customers in the coming weeks.

More than there already are.
