- make gov. also install infrastructure on all public projects
- underinvest in infrastructure and simply degrade service as needed
- create extremely complex billing and cost structure
- (if cable company) also sell advertising and charge networks
- aggregate customer data. Ignore above point, if not cable company inject tracking directly. Make huge profit, pay slightly >1 million as a joke after caught.
- destroy net neutrality and charge on both sides of equation
- spy on your customers and leverage the data for profit directly and sell it on open market
- if user is privacy centric, do same as above but charge more
So in summary, charge 4 different entities for the same single service and include extra fees to everyone for the service you already sold them. It would be like if you were a fruit salesman.
- government subsidizes farm
- charge farmer to sell fruit
- eliminate all competing fruit stands
- sell fruit for profit
- charge extra for providing 4 bananas to someone who bought 4 bananas
- charge extra for unspoiled fruit without insects
"except that a provider of wire communication service to the public shall not utilize service observing or random monitoring except for mechanical or service quality control checks."
It's not "AT&T" doing this. It's their executives and shareholders - people with names and addresses. Don't pressure AT&T to change, you will never succeed - pressure it's key people. Do not let them hide behind their corporation.
does anyone really believe that companies, their boards and their institutional shareholders in general apply a higher moral standard than maximizing returns? or that they could be shamed into doing so?
If they were booed and egged any time they showed their faces in public, perhaps. But regulation and breakup of (near) monopolies should definitely also be applied, yes.
