So at any given time, one half of ACS's home DSL customers are subject
to increased rates or account termination, at the sole discretion of ACS.
I hate the way corporate lawyers dictate the rules for a whole city.
In theory, if people don't like it, they shouldn't get the service.
But how many people actually care enough to forgo broadband speed?
Certainly not enough to pressure ACS to change their Terms and Conditions.
So here we are.
