Clam down, Fren.
It's nothing moar than a bait and switch tactic to get the orange man bad normies on board with the idea of putting the powers stolen back where they belong.
This needs to find its way to FL NOW!
CO-OP utility companies here aren't regulated here.
MOST utility companies here are CO-OPs.
That's the loophole my provider is using to extort me into allowing them to install a non-analog meter.
<"You can 'opt-out' and we'll replace your current analog meter with a 'non-transmitting' digital meter."
<"We'll need to charge you an extortion fee of $60/month to come out and read the 'non-transmitting' digital meter."
>"I'm ALREADY paying you $23/month to come out and read my analog meter."
>"I'll keep that one, thanks."
<"But we don't provide analog meters anymore and can't find a vendor that sells them."
>"What part of 'I already have an analog meter, provided by you, and you're already coming out to read it', don't you understand."
<"If you would just sign this 'opt-out' form, (which is essentially giving consent to install digital 'non-transmitting' meter), we'll stop bothering you.
>"FUCK YOU AND YOUR DIGITAL METER!"
<"But it's the law. Besides, everyone will be using them in a year or so anyway. Just let us install it now and we'll go away."
>"Show me the 'law' citing I must comply with your extortion meter."
>"You CAN'T, because it doesn't exist."

I've already kicked the subcontractor, Allegiant, off my property twice.
Had the regular meter reader out the other day to do his job.
He was on eggshells with how polite he was being.
Must have been the .45 on my hip. :/
FUCK YOU TECHNOCRATS!!
