Because it is the same BS they try to claim to "protect" us consumers. EVERYTHING they don't want to do they claim will cost us more or won't work because "WE" won't except it and yet every single time the industry still strives because us consumers weren't hurt.
If phone prices go up then let them. Then the phone companies will have to find a way to make a good product for less. If they can't innovate in that respect then they don't need to sell phones.
You're missing the point. The phone companies won't be impacted by this type of legislation. The consumers, ironically the ones this legislation is supposed to protect, will end up paying the cost. ETFs affect a relatively small population of mobile device customers. Why potentially impact everyone with higher costs for the "benefit" of a minority that actually wants to terminate their contracts?
