ATT lets you run servers.  Here is a section from their current agreement

(i.) FTP/HTTP Service Setup. Customer acknowledges that when using the
   Service there are certain applications such as FTP (File Transfer
   Protocol) server or HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) server which
   may be used by other persons or entities to allow such other persons
   or entities to gain access to Customers Equipment. Customer is solely
   responsible for the security of the Customer Equipment or any other
   equipment Customer chooses to use in connection with the Service,
   including without limitation any data stored on such equipment.
   Neither AT&T Broadband nor its affiliates shall have any liability
   whatsoever for any claims, losses, actions, damages, suits or
   proceedings resulting from, arising out of or otherwise relating to
   the use of such applications by Customer, or the access by others to
   the Customer Equipment or other equipment of Customer.
