AT&T to FCC: gaming is not "broadband," but an added service
The computer/video game industry is peeved at AT&T for suggesting that real-time gaming isn't a core part of broadband like e-mail and Web browsing, but that it's instead an "aspirational service."
Wake up AT&T, gaming uses the INTERNET! The same thing that Email and web browsing uses!
I really hate the direction american internet providers are trying to take our internet, and it's not just at&t. All of them would love to cap our internet usage and drop the speeds.
