FWIW I was able to avoid this charge as a DSL subscriber, and do not now as a fiber subscriber.

But part of your experience could be because, as the article describes, since 2005 the incumbent telco (the ILEC) no longer has to provide the CLEC (sonic) wholesale rates on its lines. Sonic may have no choice.

A little unsure what you meant in the second half of your first line. You mean, do not now avoid the charge? Or do not now pay the charge? (I realize it may be moot though since my situation is different... still copper here.
