That will never happen, and if it's forced, it will be the same circus act that the T-Com act of '96 brought to us.
Unless it has teeth, which the TA1996 Act didn't.

Of course, with our lobbyist/Washington DC situation, it's not going to happen. Back to your point #1.

"One major exception is that BT will give competitors wholesale access to the network, something AT&T and Verizon have yet to do." Yeah right!!

A vast majority of press releases are. That's more or less their definition.

Isn't it demeaning to the legacy of the late, great Benny Hill to compare his brilliant, comedic genius to the ineptitude of a local phone company?
Actually, this pic goes very well with the story. This whole BT press release is a freakin JOKE.
