Let them start losing customers and then you may see how much they care!

Using this tactic/logic I wonder how long it would before telephone companies begin to monitor their customer’s calls in the name of stopping crime and terrorism?

I think you are deluding yourselves. Most of the subscribers will probably be unaware of this unless AT&T make mention of it in a mass emailing/newsletter or some broadcast on a big network and even then a lot of people ignore it/miss it. The amount of drop off will be probably be miniscule. This is the problem. We create these monsters. We flock to the services and they grow to be the biggest for that area and then they are a monopoly for that area so they can do damn near what they like and you just have to suck it up or leave (Thus losing service entirely if they are the only player available). We can only hope this does not spread. Of course we all know they will use AT&T as an example to try and push other ISP’s to do the same. Especially through the political/law system.

there is no choice in HULL! We only have karoo offered by kingston communication (not BT). If they start to do this as well we are forced to comply!!

I just love how the internet is increasingly becoming more and more regulated.

To those who said AT&T would not lose customers over this I think you are just fooling yourselves. When enough people get sued and find out it was AT&T that turned them in it will only be a matter of time before people start to turn away in droves!
