Comment Re:Unlimited Data has actually been gone since Nov (Score 1) 150

I just talked to a guy at an AT&T store about the difference between the $15/m unlim data plan and the 'PDA package'.

He swore up and down that his girlfriend uses Pandora 24/7 and has never had an overage charge. I asked him why is it then that seemingly everyone on the internet that uses their iphone for what it's purpose is (internet) has had supremely higher bills because they destroyed the 5GB cap?

I tried every way possible to get someone to admit it, and they all insisted that there is no such thing as a cap. I told him he was full of shit. Yea, HE might not get billed more because he works for AT&T and they're good to their people.

Don't get me wrong, AT&T has been REALLY REALLY good to me over the last 2 1/2 years. I have absolutely no issue with their Customer Support. The problem is the lying by the overlords, which trickles down into retail, which makes everyone that has a hard copy bill with overages look like a liar.

He told me that only is the tethering capped at 5GB. The actual phone's data plan is unlimited like it says.

Can anyone at all, confirm or deny this? Maybe an AT&T employee that knows what the fuck he's talking about, not just what AT&T tells him is 'right'?

I think that's the most sense I've ever heard made out of this EULA debauchery. Finally someone is thinking.

But you forget friend, that this is not our world, this is the corporate world; they think on a different level than the average citizen and having the EULA available to you AFTER purchase is the corporate's way of locking you into a binding agreement without your consent. They figured if you wanted the game bad enough to buy it, then you're amped enough to agree to anything that's in that EULA. Imagine the surprise when Ubisoft shows up and takes some old gamers first born, but instead of flashing a warrant much like cops, they flash a dated EULA. That needs to change. That's exactly how I think though when I buy new software, whether it be a game or application, I come to the EULA and I say "Yea, yea, yea, I bought the damn thing, f*ck off" I AGREE. And the way they write those things up? The language and vernacular they use in those things? Jesus Christ, you'd have to be a lawyer to understand half of it. You can't omit words because they write it in such a way; you switch one or two words around and it could change the entire meaning of the sentence.
