Something a bit more determinative might be called for.
A "please explain" from the telco commissioner would be a good start...followed up by more intrusive scrutiny from the relevant Minister into the precise requirements claimed in the response to the request for explanation.
Telcos may back off rather than have their internals laid out in public to justify the unacceptable.
