Abuse of Trust

Telus, the second largest Telecom company in Canada, has block their striking union’s website from Telus’ subscribers. This is a hideous move violating the duty of a service provider. Imagine the telephone company cutting off the lines to their striking union. Service providers should not be the censure of information according to its taste or business expediency. This is not even a matter of freedom of speech issue but using its privileged position to advance its own agenda and suppressing others. This is an abuse of power and trust. If I were a Telus subscriber, I would have cancelled upon hearing about it.
