Limbo | History repeats itself "Network engineers being ignored by execs with dollar signs in their eyes...."
"serious disconnect between technicians (who think the system violates user trust) and executives (who are absolutely blinded by dollar signs) "
History is rife with disasters resulting from management's unwillingness to listen to their engineers. Sometimes I wonder why companies hire engineers when the execs seem so often unwilling to listen to them if their concerns are in violation of the almighty dollar--consequences be damned.
"One ISP has gone so far as to suggest it's as good as getting faster speeds"
Until marketers are held to the heat for desceptive marketing or perhaps develop some ethics people will never understand how they're being screwed. The edge for how far marketing can make claims always seems to be getting pushed toward deception.

Their job consists mainly of social and mental manipulation of the masses. |
