AT&T sells you bandwidth, and now they want to charge the people from whom you download a second time for the privilidge of using the wires that you have already paid for.

They are claiming that they want to help crack down on copyright infringement, but let’s be clear, this is a lie.

They want the RIAA and MPAA to support their efforts, so that later, they can charge the RIAA’s and MPAA’s clients for selling AT&T customers online music and movies.

We don’t care. We don’t have to. (snort) We’re the Phone Company!”
