Alas,if only we could have always had the courage of your convictions! Back in the mid-1970s when the private corporation AT&T was the only national-scale provider of any kind of communications service in the US, a bunch of short-sighted whiners argued that forcing AT&T to unbundle was necessary to improve existing (voice) services, drive down extortionate pricing, and give the universe of non-AT&T employees a shot of their own at at innovating. But anyone who remembers those days knows that the complaints were LIES: everyone had access to a wide variety of alternatives, ranging from CB radios to postcards to tin cans interconnected with string! So what if that whining ultimately made it possible for the Internet grow beyond the confines of a few university campuses, and for the US to become the world leader and hub of Internet development? Now all of that growth and wealth and innovation will forevermore be tainted by by poisoned circumstances of its illegitimate origin. Ahh, if only we could turn back the clock so that we might do it right from the beginning.... Four decades later we might still look a bit like those countries in landlocked Africa or Central America that are still waiting for widespread consumer access the the Internet and other services, but at least our virtue would still be intact!
Given the fact that any Internet-based response would be inherently self-contradictory, please don't sully yourself any further by replying!
