My home email is att.net as provided by my U-verse internet subscription. My daughter still has sbcglobal.net, a nod to the history of the modern ATT, even though she now also has U-verse for internet. For many years both URLs have been supported by the infamous Yahoo, which is now the province of Verizon.
Oh, what a tangled web we weave... Grownup ISVs try hard to avoid pulling the plug on long-established URLs. I expect the same will obtain if/when ATT gobbles up Time-Warner/Spectrum, which ASAIK still provides roadrunner.com, itself a nod to the eponymous cartoon character. I don't know about attglobal.net, but you're more likely get a new phone number (area code) foisted upon you than a new email address. . .

I find it kind of deja vuish though in that @attglobal.net was what @ibm.net got turned into when IBM decided that us peons were diluting their brand. If they really are making everyone that went through that conversion (I think it as 2001 or so) and opted to accept the @attglobal.net addresses change again, I hope people just refuse and take their business elsewhere.
