Re: A T T There are only two constructive solutions: harass and terrorize. Focus all of your anger you can summon upon the top guy that controls your cable system. Also form a satellite retail company and only advertise in areas they service. They will really get ticked off about that and probably take that personally. Don't be polite, be ruthless. They have the advantage that they are an unregulated abusive monopoly. You have the advantage that you don't have any rules of ethics you have to uphold. |

I think that only applies to criminals , conservative Republicans, and radical mullahs. |

| I'm not talking about laws. I'm talking about ethics. I'll give you an example. Time Warner cable as I've said before blackmailed us over a contract for 4 years just to get cable modems and digital cable. Our cable commission and Time Warner made a "gentlemen's agreement" not to negotiate this in public. This is clearly in Time Warner's advantage(not discussing public). I told my city officials that I thought they were the biggest suckers in front of them at city council meetings because they wouldn't negotiate in publice. To hell the an agreement. Was it a legal document?? I hope it was. Break the legal document. Entice them to sue you. The last thing these cable monopolies want is to get in a David-Goliath trial of the century that makes them look like Nazis. They are blackmailing you. You should blackmail them back. It's just that simple. You also harass and terrorize those who are accountable for their policies. What other recourse do you have. If they want these policies, they better be prepared to defend them and accept public backlash.
This is the system we have where we are ruled by totalitarian dictatorship. Until we successfully revolt and bring infrastructure in control of the people, this is all we can do. |
