If you ALL joined one organization you would have a well-funded group to
fight this.
But most ISP's, WISP's, Hosts, and VoIP Providers don't pay for
membership any where.
Great at bitching. Champion, PhD bitching, but actually put up time and
money to make one single org work, not so much.
This industry - if you can even call it that - has a myriad of
organizations mainly due to strong independent feelings. So instead of
one really strong group representing, you have a scattering of smaller,
less powerful associations. AASP, FISPA, Part-15, WISPA, TISPA, et al.
CLEC's used to have that problem with ALTS, ASCENT and a couple of
others. Now they have just enough members for one - one really weak one.

Excellent analogy.
The difference being that there's WalMart and Kmart and hundreds of other
well funded retailers with lawyers who'll tell them to stuff it.
The little guys get nailed instead, because we haven't got a raft of lawyers
waiting around on retainer for something to do.
