    This seems like the best strategy realistically. If scotus makes it everyones problem, then make it a problem for those with the most to lose from losing internet access.

    Starbucks in particular would have a bad time lol

      Nah, then it just becomes a defacto situation of the content creation companies (Disney, Sony, etc) owning the telecom companies. So you will truly be a single content household, like a Disney Household or a Paramount Household.

        … And Sean Kennedy’s listener licence becomes just a little closer to reality.

        (I know that no one knows who that is, but Tales From the Afternoon was ironically prophetic and well ahead of it’s time. Unfortunately I’m one of a very few people who knows who he is lol)
