I am guessing self regulation to avoid Cali and Euro style for the people regulation. Also our monopolies can be ported easily so there is no need to call us a monopoly or keep mentioning things like make us a public utility that has to follow anyone's rules but our own. Some positive PR in the sea of "they are evil for this and that and that and..." - hey we're open. The GDPR thing has a mandate in it that personal data must be exportable doesn't it? So, two birds, one stone, add some positive PR. Just guessing.. Lets hope this doesn't turn out how G and Fb bragged about xmpp or whatever until they didn't need it any more and then your data and comms stopped being as interchangeable as it once was.
