Which is fine, if consumers actually have a choice. Where this doesn't work is more often in cable where many consumers have few, if more than one option at all.

“True anti-discrimination law is getting the government out of dictating whether people should discriminate.”

“True free speech rights is getting the constitution out of dictating whether the government should censor.”
