BULLETIN: AT&T tells me it will revise "damage our name" language in TOS
Just and I mean JUST- received this from a key AT&T spokesman I have communicated with before:
Russell,
I wanted to give you a quick update on the terms of service language you posted on last week (Note: link to that post is mine).
We are revising the terms of service to clarify our intent, and the language in question will be revised to reflect AT&T’s respect for our customers’ right to express opinions and concerns over any matter they wish. We will also make clear that we do not terminate service because a customer expresses their opinion about AT&T.
I encourage you to let your readers know that this change is being made, and I will send the revised statement as soon as it is available.
Looks like we made a difference.
I will, of course, keep you readers up to date on this as well.
