CW: DV >!"we'll have to raise prices if early termination fees are banned" has a real "look how you made me hurt you" abuser vibe.!<
I'm imagining the logic is something like "predatory fees generate $xx million in revenue a year, so if we lose that revenue source we will have to put our other fees up to compensate, because as a multi-billion dollar company our shareholders will get all butthurt if our profit drops by a fraction of a percentage point next year"
