"Instead of accepting the ruling and changing their tactics, BellSouth executives decided to threaten the state, saying they'd cease rural community DSL deployments; BellSouth's Louisiana President William Oliver warning at the time that BellSouth would "halt investment in its high-speed Internet network if the ruling is not changed."
Instead of just the custmore being held hostage it sounds like Bellsouth wants to the state/states hostage.
Alot of people don't want a dial tone period. Maybe they have a cell phone or VOIP,, all this from bellsouth just makes them look worse and worse.
