They don't care much right now... but if you're causing 
enough grief or trouble enough to swing the evil eye of 
Sauron your direction, then you have bigger problems about 
to happen.

No, they only seem to want to respond when something is so 
bad it can't be ignored. Or it's a broadcast related issue...  
It's been reported there is a lot of money in broadcast but 
those of us who work there haven't seen much of it yet.

It's not "anymore" it was not really "ever" except maybe back 
in the 1960's and early 1970's when things were different. 
Men were men and sheep were nervous and the FCC had a lot 
more personal with enforcement on their collective minds.  
Yes, the Borg were around back then...
