Re: Charter executives are a pack of idiots

said by Corydon See Profile :

I guess it's a sign of just how desperate they are that they'll leap at any opportunity to add a little to the bottom line, no matter how half-baked the idea is.
I wouldn't call the idea half-baked considering a majority of consumers don't understand or care what's going on. While Charter's financial situation isn't as strong as many other companies, I doubt they're doing this out of desperation. Obviously, everything is on the table that generates revenue, is within legal acceptability, and customers tolerate. I think you'll see many other ISPs begin similar practices.
