you mean that current telecoms regulations are passed their 
sell by date anyway and serve as trade protectionism for a fast reducing 
minority of vested interests?

No, on the contrary. For example, if it hadn't been for proactive regulatory

intervention in local loop unbundling in Korea and Japan and many other
regulatory measures, there wouldn't be such a dynamic broadband market 
in those countries nor would one see so much growth in VOIP services. 
You can thank the regulators and policy makers in those countries for 
stimulating growth and bringing lots of benefits to users...
