But why should I expect my private business to incurr costs to make some future militarization easier?
Actually, not a bad idea (sort of). Add a door just aft of the front restroom and galley. Close and lock it and the cockpit door unlocks and remains unlocked. Flight crew have access to restroom and front galley. Crew returns to the flight deck and the outer door unlocks so passengers and cabin crew can access facilities.
Some work will have to be done to ensure no-one can hide in this area during the locking procedure.
Welcome to Slashdot. People arguing over topics for which they have no practical experience.
Spaghetti code is good.

If it can't be seized and placed under control of the military during times of war*, its not going into space. Gotta make sure we know the key people and which pieces we'll need to grab should we need to mount weapons on it and send it up.

By including various regulators in your correspondence, you might not get a remedy for your particular problem. But given enough complaints, the regulator might realize that there's a problem with a particular utility and act. Or some public interest group can obtain such correspondence through a FOIA and use it to support legal or legislative action.
Corporations know that most people can be disuaded by the argument that your individual complaint will get you nowhere. And on a case by case basis they are probably correct. But if they percieve it as one piece of evidence that builds up to some sort of class action, they might be more motivated to fix problems early.
They mob bald eagles that pass through my neighborhood and chase them off. It would be a simple matter to train them to knock down drones.
I went down to the Comcast office to confirm
Your mistake. They have no problem lying to a customer's face. Conduct all correspondence by e-mail. And make sure the CCs to the state utilities commission, attorney general and FCC are clearly visible.
Ayy LMAO!
Real dystopian world domination by corporations
Corporations run by the lizard people.
It is easier to change the specification to fit the program than vice versa.
