If the politician does not take responsibility (accept fault) who will? Taking responsibility for the text of at least the law the sponsor has proposed and helped pass is the minimum responsibility I would expect from a legislator. What else do we elect them for? The legislator wrote a law that allowed too much interpretation, that is the fault of the legislator.

The law doesn't require or even encourage CenturyLink to notify customers in this way so what is the politician responsible for? For writing a bill that wasn't impossible to interpret maliciously?
- bostonpete 8y agoI don't see any ambiguity in the wording of the law -- seems like it was intended to provide maximum flexibility in how the information was delivered. The wording also didn't rule out tying the information to a brick and throwing it through each customer's window, but I don't think anyone would be blaming the politicians if that's what the ISP decided to do...
