Yes, but would this result in more or less noise than an open end acting
like an antenna? And would the ground loop noise be in the DSL =
spectrum?

Yeah, grounding both ends will result in some current traversing across =
the
pairs all the time because of differences in ground potential over =
long-ish
distances.

Grounding both ends will probably result in "hilarity ensues". And I
suspect that Anurag can't ground the free pairs, because the copper =
belongs
to the provider.
