Since some people think the FCC is the enemy:

The FCC, and other government regulatory bodies, are all that protects individuals from being trampled by corporations.

Corporations spend millions of dollars lobby the FCC, and politicians, to allow them to be increasingly unfair towards consumers. The FCC didn't create the legislation, the Corporations did, via the politicians they have purchased.

Corporations are your enemy, and want to steal all of your money, and provide the least amount of service. The FCC is there to stop them from doing that.

However, the FCC needs guidance, and that comes in the form of petitions, emails, comments, and calls to tell them what you want.
