    It’s called the “annoyance economy”, and it’s profitable especially at scale. A companies obligation is to its investors, not society.
    Regulation is the immediate response intended to balance this unless there are other fundamental changes.

    I say companies should not be allowed to merge unless the time to speak to.a real person when you call is under 5 minutes. Because it will get worse after the merge.
