I hate when pornos try to have plots

Those were the days. Too bad we'll never see the likes of anything like this ever again in the US.
Dig those wild glasses on the residential phone design buy!

Actually, the telephone system as such has never been better!
Bell labs and AT&T have tried, and failed, to introduce technology that most people do not want, and tried to control others.
PicturePhone and caller ID are 2 examples.
We now have webcams and caller ID, nobody uses video calls and caller ID is a very common service.
Cellular has pretty much replaced the payphone and DSL is the primary purpose of the twisted pair.
Everyone from grade school to seniors have a phone in their pocket.

We had the best telephone system in the world until they decided to break it up in 1985. I worked for MaBell starting in 1973. After 1985 things started to go downhill.
The company had all of it's own schools but they closed down after 1985.
The old Bell System was a very strict work place but it was a good job and I miss it.

Did they build the Hal 9000?

Thanks to the uploader! Bell Labs was a national treasure.
Greg Chesson sounds like a familiar name - there was a Chesson who wrote a column in a vintage microcomputer-era magazine called "ROM".

Why would any country let such a large group of such great people be disbanded?

@mboya6969 funny thing, as most of the non-retired folk in bell labs' computing science research work at google now.
