• We're adding a term to make sure our customers use equipment that complies with relevant standards.

• We are adding a right to slow your service if we reasonably believe you’ve breached our Acceptable Use Policy.

• We're adding more definitions to what we consider ‘unfair, unreasonable or inappropriate use’.

• If a customer treats our people in an abusive or threatening way, we may end the interaction and – in extreme cases – we may stop offering our service to them altogether.
