Bullshit!
Netcom sets the policy and Netcom does infact have a policy that will
lead to a termination of the account should you be running a tool or
script that keeps your connection active while you are not actively
using the Netcom service. That is while you are sleeping or shopping or
eating dinner or whatever..... Anytime you are not sitting at your
computer keyboard then you are expected to log off.
By unlimited use, Netcom has defined this as active keyboard involvement
with you sitting in front of your keyboard and actively inputting
keystrokes from time to time.......
