John C. Dvorak spares NO ONE! =P I love his honest lucidity about propagated bs.
"Screw that cheap and tawdry writing trick. Let's look at the logic. We have no socialist diktat going on, and we are falling behind other countries like crazy in broadband speeds and connectivity. Countries that mandated universal high-speed connectivity (aka socialist diktat) have all zoomed ahead of us. We are in 16th or 17th place and falling fast. This tells me that we are doing something wrong. We're kowtowing to the wishes of the big telcos—mega corporations that have no real interest in progress, just profits. I can hear folks saying, "Let's do what they say; they know what's best for us."
These are the bean counters who have done a cost analysis on "slamming" to determine whether the fines for this illegal practice are greater than the profits. They're not interested in the customer and have to be watched like a hawk. Or hasn't anyone noticed?"
