Power companies spend millions to fight Maine’s proposed not for profit utility - because… power should be FOR PROFIT of course, and not a PUBLIC UTILITY! What a bunch of BS. #power #electricity #Maine #publicutilities https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jun/18/maine-state-run-utility-power-companies

#Entergy is a joke of a utility company.
“A first responder has arrived” to a “planned outage” that I found out about via an email I received AFTER the power went out at 2am.
Starting your day off with a newborn in the dark is not something I would recommend. So glad I’m paying all this money to “improve our grid” 🙄

@RolloTreadway @ianbetteridge It's a huge problem and really should run into questions regarding #monopolies and #ProprietaryPlatforms.
#PublicUtilities should use public infrastructure (as much as feasible) based on #OpenStandards for announcements, anything else is nonsensical.

Public utilities (like our water system) are supposed to have contingency and backup plans. It's hard to create redundancies, however, and difficult (and expensive) to protect against some fairly easy forms of attack. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/05/us/north-carolina-power-station-attack.html?smid=url-share

This also demonstrates the sheer power of working in the public interest that #publicUtilities have over #forprofit utilities.
In #France, where the electric company is #nationalized, they have a policy that completely prohibits utility shutoffs at all, for any reason. https://www.service-public.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F20055?lang=en

What if destroying #smallBusiness is the unsaid purpose of a govt owned by mega #corporations?
More nuanced than that.
What if small businesses are maybe less efficient than big businesses, so in a #zeroCarbon future we cannot afford to have small businesses.
So govt have decided to use the pandemic to close businesses deemed unworthy.
In this context, is there a case for #GAFCAM and #Tesla to be #publicUtilities?
If so, how should they be governed over by us?

#GlennGreenwald: « #Facebook […] has the right to determine who uses its #platform […] The #FirstAmendment technically doesn’t apply to #Facebook. But #SiliconValley giants have become so powerful and massive […] in particular #Google, #Facebook and #Apple—that they’re really much more akin now to #PublicUtilities, to almost their own private #NationStates […] so that the power to eliminate somebody from #Facebook is almost the power to eliminate them from the #internet »
