Cost.

The government can do pretty much anything, including an undetected tapping of undersea cables, if they’re willing to pay the cost to do it. They want the ability to intercept or disrupt communications, and they don’t want people to know it’s them. They’ll pay that price (and have already done so many times, no doubt).

Your cable company simply doesn’t want to pay the extra costs to provide uninterrupted service while conducting repairs.

He did his research on the interview process by asking somebody who went through it. He then prepared for it as best he could. It’s no different than his learning that a potential employer asks “tell us about a time you...” questions about customer service methods, workplace interactions, etc, and then preparing answers to those questions instead.

If anything, what he did was highlight the lazy stupidity that is demonstrated in the hiring practices of many companies these days.
