They made a choice to fight the ridiculous charges and punishements sought by the gov. The lower court can do whatever it wants, if it is overturned, no justice dept official will launch antitrust again - against any corp. If they firmly believe that they are being singled out for being competitive and shouldn't be, then I think it is worth fighting. Other corporations don't. AT&T doesn't say that since they will be burdened with the cost of laying the cable lines so that it is a 2-way broadband pipe, they should have exclusive rights to decide who goes in and who doesn't. It doesn't say that because the gov will sue it and maybe even win. This is ridiculous. The risks being taken by corporations are not being rewarded due to gov meddling. This must be challenged. I applaud such efforts...
