Re: Well PhoenixDSL doesn't know anything about this Yeah, that's my reaction. I couldn't tell whether this "article" was a bona fide piece of journalism, or just some dissatisfied customer who just wants to share with the world what some rep may have actually said to him in conversation.
If the article is in-fact bogus, it could be very well be libelous and subject the author to a defamation action by the individuals quoted in the "article," provided what was said is also bogus. But, if in-fact the statements are true, he's is covered. Nevertheless, the statements purported are believable and understandable.
If the article is true, then the implication is that Megapath is encouraging residential customers to leave. Perhaps the next step would be to offer bound subscribers the opportunity to terminate their contract without penalty, which I think is where this SHOULD HEAD if in-fact the policies stated with respect to residential service are true.
At the very least, if a residential customer is deprived of residential service at a level commensurate what he bargained for, then statements made in the article are convincing evidence to support a breach by Phoenix/Megapath and give rise for that subscriber to be excused from any further payment under his contract should he choose to leave the service prior to expiration of the contract term.

It is, in fact, direct from ZDNET.
