Hey, mine is too (AT&T). However, the vast majority of people do not have internet through their phone company, for reasons because they want more speed or they live in a rural area. Does your phone company has a thing similar to U-Verse that AT&T has? If so, then you're paying for their cable/satellite programming by default.
Cable/satellite internet is garbage.
Still faster and better than the dial-up modem you're using through AOL LOL.
And I certainly CAN complain about the crap on TV regardless of my internet use. Stop defending the indefensible.
I don't watch a lot of TV. But I do enjoy me some movies and other programming time and again. I don't sit and post here all day like you guys do.
The only time that I'm on FR everyday is when I work on the FReepathon.
Again, regardless of my internet usage I WILL continue to criticize libs and their control of television.
