I object to AT&amp;T spying on customers at the packet level for two reasons. The first is people already pay for this service ad presumably already pay for privacy, so charging them twice in effect rubs me the wrong way. Two, the market isn&#8217;t exactly competitive. Google is in some of these markets with Gigabit service, but it may not serve these exact homes, so there is likely in some of the cases no alternative to Gigabit service or possibly even superfast broadband. Thus, AT&amp;T is the sole provider and is coercing customers economically to give up their privacy to obtain a service they can&#8217;t get otherwise. <\/p>\n<p>In the case of Google and others, they are monitoring you at the application layer, where you can preserve your privacy by switching providers, taking some preventative means such as blocking cookies or trying to install ad-blocking software (it depends on the service).  Also, those services are free, and in the paid versions of Google&#8217;s Apps you don&#8217;t get ads for example.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"comment-sharing
