Re: Hey investors!

Y'know how when one company hikes their rates, they all do the same thing? Or starting to offer "unlimited"--notice how all the major mobile companies announced it practically within the same week? Don't think for a second that's coincidence. As soon as one sees another making a move, they all play copycat in order to partake in the perceived profits...

The same argument still applies though. If they just shutoff their section, it really will affect their PAYING customers. If it's a prolonged outage, they are just going to go elsewhere. It still would be financially a dumb move for any company.

I meant their section of the internet, sorry for my lame comment. I know the internet is not owned by anyone, but teh idea that a company can put millions without service irks me.
