Just as I suspected. Promising to slap their hand will do nothing. We did the same thing with the telecommunications act in the 1990s in order to enforce competition in the ISP space, and the entrenched telcos laughed it off. I guess Wheeler is expecting that history won't repeat? I refuse to believe he is this naive, he knows enforcement won't go anywhere, but he thinks everyone else believes this so his agenda can be pushed.
