TWC merger badness for customers: speed upgrades halted, home security put on hold
Wow! All those GREAT BENEFITS of the Charter/TWC merger are already coming true -- NOT! What a crock. Luckily, TWC already has 300 service here, but apparently Charter has typically limited their deployments (still years away from completion) to 100. And I feel for those TWC customers who bought into their aggressively marketed (as of the last billing inserts!) home security services. No matter what Charter says now, you know these customers are going to be left out in the cold. Great work FCC! Great work DOJ! Customers getting the shaft as usual. https://www.dslreports.com/shownews/Time-Warner-Cable-Suspends-Broadband-Upgrades-After-Merger-137219 https://www.dslreports.com/shownews/Source-Time-Warner-Cable-May-Shutter-Home-Security-Service-137216 --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein ([email protected]): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: http://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com I have consulted to Google, but I am not currently doing so -- my opinions expressed here are mine alone. _______________________________________________ pfir mailing list http://lists.pfir.org/mailman/listinfo/pfir
