All,
As quoted from the article;
"Any provider who blocks access to the Internet is inviting
customers to find another provider," Whitacre said in his keynote speech.
"It's bad business." He then emphatically stated that AT&T
would not block independent services, "nor will we degrade [Internet
access].
Period, end of story."
Also quoted from the article;
"We've already demonstrated we'll take action if necessary,"
Martin said.

Of course in the very same keynote this is what Commissioner Martin had
to say;
"Martin told attendees at the TelecomNext show that telcos
should be allowed to charge web sites whatever they want
if those sites want adequate bandwidth."
