I thought about utilizing DirecTV's DSL service in the coming months (they
openly support Linux/UNIX -- unlike a few unnamed providers), but I've a
question for any of you out there that have already signed up for this: in
paragraph 4.1 of the TOS agreement, they state that they will charge you
$0.10 a minute for "remote access" charges in excess of 60 minutes per
month. I saw this and nearly did a double take -- are they actually charging
you for SSH'ing into your own systems from the outside world?
