You are still voting with your wallet that what they are doing is OK.
You claim they are the only game in town, but they are not. You have wireless. You have dialup. You can go across the cel phone network if you want. Sure, they aren't nearly as fast, but they are there.
Point of fact, Internet Access is not a protected Right under the constitution. They offer a service; you can pay for it or not. If you don't like the market you are in, change markets. (and yes, I know moving is extreme, but it is always an option).
They are giving specifically what they claim, and are occasionally changing things they do not specify. Just because you assumed when you signed up that some undiscussed abilities were there when you signed up, doesn't mean they don't have the right to change them when the business model shows otherwise.
Whatever you think, they are within their legal rights. -Steve Thad Van Ry wrote:
I am not one that "they are loosing(sic) money on" and I would love to switch to something else. Unfortunately, for me, they are the only "High Speed" internet alternative. I can't get DSL where I live and wireless is only slightly faster than dial-up.
