Reason #10,258 for never doing business with AT&T

I've seen this basic article on BoingBoing and now here, on TechDirt. It mentions that AT&T will try to "filter" copyrighted content its customers might be looking at. Well, not only do I say "good luck with that" for the same reasons TechDirt mentions (can anyone say "technical infeasibility" or "false positives"?), but I find it hard to believe that any tech-savvy person would continue to use an ISP who clearly doesn't have their interests in mind.

You have to ask who is paying their bills, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Public, or big media? Of course, that's a rhetorical question since it's pretty obvious.

As I said, this has to be reason #10,258, at least.
