They're mad as hell, but too busy lobbying to provide some kind of competing content. If they just sucked it up and realized that they are getting payed to be a "dumb pipe" they could invest that lobbying money into some worthwhile content for the internet, and then actually have another revenue stream.

Do you ever get the feeling that the only reason we have elections is to find out if the polls were right?

The man who knows how will always have a job. The man who also knows why will always be his boss.
