Don’t trust the Baby Bells

I happened an article about Dennis Hayes and unkept telco promises. I found this quite interesting because of my ISP background. For a long time, Hayes modems were considered the de-facto standard.
The biggest problem in the ISP business: telcos. Being forced to team up with telcos as unwilling and not particularly honest phone companies left little room for growth. You have to wonder why the broadband rollout in the US has been molasses-slow. I’m sure not trusting a Bell company is as good of advice now as it was 30 years ago, when there was only one of them afoot.
