In our particular market it wouldn't hurt us very badly, but ...
This is a specific problem that I think affects us all, and it
bothers me greatly that large organizations like BT are allowed to
give the finger to everyone on this list because they don't have to
worry about being nullrouted on a global basis. Knowing this, they
are allowed to understaff and otherwise ignore their abuse help
desks. Because their size allows them to not care.
I'd love to find a way to change that equation.
