If you don't nip it in the bud, it's going to be really hard to close that Pandora's box.

Once we allow utilities, power, water, telephone, internet. To have opinions about who they can service, then you're going to have a very dystopian civilization. Poor credit score? Can't get on the internet. You voted for the wrong political candidate? No Comcast for you. Don't believe in Scientology? Sorry we only offer dial-up in your area

Allowing discretion by utility providers, public services, is not only a bad precedent, it's a clear and present danger for everyone who has enemies which is everyone.
