AT&T BellSouth Deal A Load of Feces

Originally uploaded by spcoon.
AT&T, a traditionally consumer unfriendly company, has apparently offered to make a deal with the FCC that they will adhere to net neutrality for two and a half years, if their merger with Bell South is allowed.

Two and a half years? Really, so that would be say... just in time for the back-end of the merger to be complete and Ma Bell to be for all intents and purposes reassembled and ready to really screw the customer.

Luckily, I can smell a load of crap from a mile away, and certainly this deal is. Not only would merger help create the SBC, AT&T, Bell South internet and landline phone super power of the century, but it would unite all of Cingular's owners under one roof. The largest cell phone provider would be completely in step with one of the largest providers of internet and telephone service.

But, that's not a monopoly (yeah right)!

If this merger goes through, which it sadly probably will, I will vote with my paycheck to take my cell phone business elsewhere.
