Information-based societies and economies depend on the public intercommunications services as much as industrial and commercial economies depended on transportation services. Intercommunications policy ambiguities and conflicts within the intercommunications industries will result in structural changes in intercommunications systems. Major changes in rate-making principles will accompany structural change. Such changes could, in turn, sharply alter the ways intercommunications services affect the locations of economic activities.
