AT&T confirmed on Friday its plan to do away with traditional data plans for new customers.

Instead, those joining AT&T as of Oct. 25 will have to choose one of the company’s “Mobile Share” plans which allow a pool of data to be shared across multiple devices.

“In recent years, the way customers use their phones and other devices has changed — a lot,” AT&T said in a blog post on Friday.
