That might be true, but at least AT&T doesn't block private VPNs, nor has plans to do so.

How do you know what AT&T is planning? Are you involved in their internal discussion of how they handle VPN traffic?

If so, maybe you shouldn't be saying you/att have no plans to. And if not, maybe you shouldn't be saying they have no plans to

Are there public statements from ATT describing their intent to not block private vpns for the foreseeable future?

There’s no VPN blocking in place, and there are no plans to do so.

But if you want proof of what AT&T isn’t going to do, it’s going to take a while to compile.

I have T-Mobile, they don't block my VPN traffic. Cox however... My VPN does not work on any Cox network.
