More legalized sleaze

What can you say. You need to be a lawyer to sign up for any type of service from these type cretins. I surely hope that the Texas AGs have enough cojones to slap TW hard and fast for this trickery and legalized misrepresentation of the facts (and implications). This borders on extortion and racketeering.
I'm tired of reading the TOS agreements
from these "providers" that is so convoluted (intentional) not to mention offered in a font that is so mall an illegible that a lot of people(intentional) would miss it. The FCC needs to take a lesson from the SEC on legibility , understanding and disclosure. Financial disclosures are so heavily regulated that you must supply legal docs in a certain font and pitch and your offering must include implications to pending changes. I doubt though that anything of great social; import will come of this. Too many politicians are bought and paid for my these extortionists
