Ask yourself: "Is it possible that my customers might perceive my business as resembling AT&T?"
If so, change your behavior!

I suppose the difference ultimately lies in the fact that were Linode to say that a certain level of usage was 95th or 99th percentile, they could be believed. With AT&T, you have to assume that everything they say about bandwidth limits is wrong, and probably a lie.
I'd rather just "unlimited (note: OK, you can't actually download the whole Internet)" or something like that if you want to get really picky. It conveys the right message while still providing needed information to slower readers.
