The truly shocking thing to me is that any voters believe the ISP’s arguments and are … I guess fine with a portion of their monthly bills being earmarked for litigation to make their consumer experience ever worse.
Anyone who thinks internet regulation is a net negative hasn’t tried looking for a job in the past 15 years. Guaranteed full-speed access to job boards is essential in a way that classifieds never managed to achieve.
It’s not that shocking; they often re-elect so-called “conservative” politicians who like to waste taxpayer dollars on avoidable litigation.
It’s not like we can do anything about it. Customers can’t control what a business does with the money they pay. Writing and calling don’t work. The best any one person can do is cancel their service, but they’re in the minority.
And for some folks might not be an option if you want any internet at all.
Exactly so.
