AT&T's new plan to charge Web sites for their customers' mobile usage
http://j.mp/xapQMa (Gigaom)
"AT&T won't give up on trying to monetize its pipes, and thanks to a
lack of network neutrality on wireless networks, its limited data
plans, and a hunger for bandwidth-consuming mobile apps, it may have
found a way to charge the likes of Facebook, Spotify and startups
offering bandwidth-heavy applications for the privilege of sending
their bits over Ma Bell's cellular network."
