Obviously, lawyers or other such persons will be most helpful here. <br /><br /> I have been contemplating ditching my current internet service provider due to poor performance and reliability. The only other real option for me is AT&amp;T Yahoo! DSL. I was just about to pull the trigger on the switch until I heard about AT&amp;T's updated privacy policy. In reading the two policies (Charter and AT&amp;T), I can't really see that my current provider's policy is any more restrictive than AT&amp;T's. But, I wanted to check with my MeFi homies to see if someone with more legal training than I have (and any would be more than I have) can outline the differences. Also, explaining if those differences are in theory or if they would actually make a difference in the real world would be helpful as well.<br> <br> Current provider's policy: http://www.charter.com/privacy/InternetPrivacy.aspx<br> AT&amp;T Yahoo!
