Pity the poor incumbent local exchange carriers. These Baby Bells were just getting used to the increased threat from cable modems following the announcement of the AT&T-TCI merger, when word came down from the Florida Public Services Commission that BellSouth would be forced to open out its central offices to a competitive local exchange carrier, as the Telco Reform Act of 1996 very explicitly states it must do. The jig is up for all the ILECs. They have to start deploying digital subscriber lines now, and they have to open their central office racks and their dry copper plant for their competitors to do the same...

...But ILECs have no choice. The nosedive that Baby Bell stocks took the day the AT&T-TCI merger was announced will be replicated again and again and again if ILECs get into legal fights with CLECs, if they advertise the wrong length or line quality of their local loops, or if they delay deployment of DSL services much longer
