@3fe52772 A husband desires a safe and secretive environment in the bedroom...

... as much as a woman desires a work friend to be waiting outside with a gassed up car, suitcase packed to bug out, and if needed, a bat ready to knock 'em out and help her leave his fundamentalist ass. 

 @134318c2 The eventual goal of this is to kill ad-free viewing, at any price. Once the ad-supported plans "take off", they will remove the ad free ones from being "too expensive", "creating too many choices for consumers", and "not enough customers using it" (even though nobody could verify that, pro or post WGA agreement.)

I feel this is precisely why regulation is necessary: the nonsense that "businesses making the same anti-consumer changes over a period of time isn't collision" needs to stop when every free market decision results in large "-opoly" control in every case. (Like the mobile telecom industry: three choices are meaningless when all three essentially hold the same practices.)
