Phone companies have hidden fees and set up their phones so that if you go over seas, they can charge you outrages fees. The FCC may force the companies to waive thousands in fees.

they will get a slap on the wrist. consumers are too dumb to actually get anything done against the corporations that actually run the gov for the most part. these phone companies are owned mainly by the banks and the banks control the gov and wall street and hollywood. so i dont really expect people to think long enough to question their gov, their investments, and their entertainment and actually get anything done. haha silly sheeple

I'm not so sure about that:

There's at least some precedent for getting things done in history.
