So it's $348 a year cheaper to have the privacy-impaired AT&T offering. Google just needs to offer VPN service to these people for $40 a year. Privacy intact, you save a bit over $300 a year, and AT&T gets to look at nothing but encrypted bits.
This is great! We need more soft totalitarianism in our faces to encourage replacing legacy centralized protocols like HTTP(S).
And hopefully the concrete price will raise the issue in people's minds too. If ATT is willing to give you $30/mo for your privacy, how much is it really worth?! Just buy this special router and pay $5 a month to this other company, and get better protection than for the $30.
This is why we can't have nice things. Fuck you AT&T.
So, has there been any written accounts/guides for folks that started/wanted to start their own local ISP? In some places, Houston for example, you can lease fiber along powerlines and such from the power companies.

Google could spoil AT&T's party here.
