You're being too literal. Consider the other 99.9999..% of industrial infrastructure on the other end of the wire that makes the nice little light bulb light. In other words Enron, El Paso, Dynergy, most of downtown Houston for example.

Well, read the article. The basic idea is celebrating the development of the telecom industry on the model of the de-regulated energy industry---as a giant rent scam with virtual `products' like classes of access, etc.
