Way to divert attention from the regulatory capture highlighted in the article. When a monopolist says that consumers are doing SOOOO great under their regime the standard response should always be "then you have nothing to fear from some competition".
- vanattab 9y agoCompetition? From the regulators?
- guelo 9y agoI'm sure with the telecomms as regulators they will be promoting competition. /sarcasm.

- rayiner 9y agoThe article isn't talking about competition. The article is talking about why the FCC didn't appoint more state and local regulators to the advisory board. These people hate competition. They are the whole reason we used to have exclusive cable franchises until Congress made that practice illegal in 1994. And they continue to destroy competition through things like build out requirements.
- guelo 9y agoWith the telecoms in charge of government regulations the regulations will be about preventing competition.
