AT&T doesn't want to play nice, then let's split it again!

Since AT&T simply doesn't want to play nice, why doesn't the government give them a taste of their own medicine.

Why not split AT&T again, this time around not into 7 baby bells, let's make it 20, so that it takes them not 20 but 40 years to "regroup" itself again as the death star.

Verizon should be split into at least 3 as well.

Actually "giving them a taste of their own medicine" would not be breaking them up but blocking the CEO's mobile device from doing ANYTHING over the 3G network (email, internet). .

But, yeah I agree AT&T should be split up again. It was split for a reason, and now its "regrouped" - time to lower the axe on this monopoly .

We need to be open to all options. Splitting up a monopoly that is misbehaving should be on the list.

Also, let's not forget AT&T's integral role in spying on U.S. citizens with the NSA.

Split them into a Content/Service Provider and a Physical Plant provider. Level out the last mile and you will see some competition.
