You no doubt recall the searing brilliance of my comments on the FCC decision last week to relax some of the rules around how AT&T sells access to its high-speed lines to its competitors.
C’mon! They were brilliant! Admit it.
Anyway, a spokesman for Sprint spotted the post and responded, specifically addressing my belief that consumers will ultimately come out okay.
You can read the Sprint guy’s full comments after the break, but here’s the money quote:
I thought your post was dead-on with one exception - your notion that consumers won’t be harmed by the FCC’s decision. Three leading consumers groups — Consumers Union, Consumer Federation of America and Free Press - were all opposed to this deregulation and would disagree with your assumption. The concern that they have is that AT&T is stifling competition from the marketplace, and in doing so, consumers are harmed.
