 Why is there ALWAYS a negative spin?

I wont sit here and tell you this new BT rollout is revolutionary, or even fantastic. I didnt fall off my chair with jealously when I read it either. HOWEVER, this is overall good news for the people in the UK. They will be getting better, faster, more future proof service. Why is it that everything any company does needs to be turned into a hate fest on this website??

There there. Corporations are NOT evil. It's just that they look for one thing : PROFIT and it so happens that the means to attain said profit do not matter to them.

You are 100% correct of course and I agree completely... I just think Benny Hill deserves better.

He sure does, no question about it!

With BT's past track record, people in the UK take it with a grain of salt. Granted, *IF THEY DO WHAT THEY SAID IN THE PR* it will be good for the people. People are just skeptical of them doing what they said.

The part about allowing wholesale access to the network is very welcome news. Something we surely could use here.

Why the "Negative" spin? I'd say "Realistic."

As for the "hatefest", well, it's no more powerful then the shill-fest of those who believe Corporation-Doth-No-Wrong on the site, too.
