Abstract
The author discusses the expanding telecommunication industry, emphasizing the competitive market for equipment that has sprung up in the wake of deregulation. He discusses the growth of technology, particularly fiber optics and computers, and its effect on long-distance service. He examines the impact that regulation has had on long-distance companies and considers the possible harm that further policy changes could have.<>
