Perhaps you kid, but it is a hell of a lot harder to have your computers hacked and your files uploaded on a 56K modem (I am not saying hacking didn't happen. I am saying uploading your documents would be slower and more noticeable). I actually don't want to upgrade my home internet to avoid being a "more useful target" (I am not one a 56K modem.)
