ATT Raises Prices for Cable Modem Owners

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the no-we-own-you dept.

MBCook writes: "It appears that AT&T broadband doesn't like it when customers own their own cable modem. According to this article at ZDNet, ATT will be 'changing' their prices for all users. If you own your own cable modem, your bill is going up $7. If you lease your cable modem, you end up paying the same ammount you were before. I guess AT&T likes to milk it's customers. If I don't have a long distance service with any phone company, I have to pay for the privilage of not depending on them. Now I'll have to pay for the privilage of not depending on AT&T for a modem?"

    Editors, please correct grammar and spelling errors submitted. In this story, those are even above the /. average ("ammount", "it's", "privilage"). I would like to see this average going down rather than up.

    FFS Mods, its got something to do with the fucking article posted. Stop being dipshit moderators and save your points for good clear-thought posts, and for modding down the trolls. Don't use pissy offtopic moderations for a reasonable request like the parent. FFS some moderators, they're like a fucking disease.

    Go on mod me down, you'll prove me 100% correct. (And see these idiot moderators explode their brain with the reverse psychology).

    Maybe they should make the modems open source so that it will lower costs?
