> There's no moral reason
Of course there is a moral reason. There are moral reasons we can come up with for every possible human action, because morals are subjective. Thus, the statement "There's no moral reason" is always false. The opposite is meaningless (in the same way that saying "water is wet" would be meaningless).
- MiddleEndian 7y agoThis is nothing but pedantry. All I'm saying is that AT&T isn't going to come up with a good solution to spammers out of the kindness of their hearts.
- krageon 7y agoIn the same way that what I said is pedantic, claiming a moral reason is obvious or self-evident is self-righteous. You are implying that to you there is an obvious moral reason and it should be obvious to the reader what that moral reason is. What I was trying to tell you is that it is not obvious to me. Even now that you've explained the effect of your moral reasoning, I don't understand what makes this moral (or even a reason). Is it a moral reason when they continue to exploit the situation as it is even though it is unfriendly to their customers and stimulates abuse of the system?
- MiddleEndian 7y agoWe seem to be in agreement that AT&T is exploiting a bad situation. The top poster asked why they don't come up with a more effective solution to eliminate spam calls for good. All I'm saying is that it's naive to assume any phone company will implement such a solution unless forced to do so.
