Which basically means WISPS have no choice but to protest and fight the
merger. ATT/BellSouth Basic declared war on all competition with that
statement.
I was OK with it, when they had the option to leave less desirable business
to third parties. But obligating themselves to have all consumers' business,
creating a monopoly to wipe out all competition, is clearly backwards. By
admitting they feel that they will be strong enough to deliver 100%
coverage, is proof that they themselves will recognize themselves a monopoly
in the re-creation.
Peter,
Where did you get that Arcticle?
