In Ireland we have EIRCOM - they rule the phone lines even though they couldn't organise a beer in a brewery. The vast majority of people need them, eventhough they refuse to roll out a decent broadband service. (some areas of Ireland are still on dial-up). Then you have our banks http://secretireland.blogspot.com/2008/11/bank-account-protection-in-ireland.html Who say all accounts are protected, even though the protection is 12 times that of our GDP - how we going to pay for that.

If the TOS clause “damage the name or reputation” is not designed to censor or punish criticism, what is its purpose? A company’s reputation, good or bad, should depend on the quality of service they provide, not on the customer’s fear of losing service altogether. Seth,

Exactly! If our corporate leaders -- and our government leaders as well -- really realized how much their policies resemble those of the worst dictatorships on the globe, they MIGHT be ashamed. On second thought, though, shame is dead. The basic guide to behavior is not what is considered fair and decent by upright, moral people, much less what would be good for all of humankind. Instead, unbridled capitalism, political leaders who pander to it, and human greed have created a society in which actions are based on whatever works -- what one can get by with. And big corporations with their resources to hire lawyers and buy politicians can get by with screwing the customer. I was just forced to buy a new cell phone when Cingular was bought by AT&T, and of course it came with a new two-year commitment. I'd cancel tomorrow, though, if I thought I could get nationwide long distance and good coverage from any other company with a fairer contract. Any ideas? “They must be taking a lesson from the Myanmar authorities.”
