Did I say that the cable co. would force their way into your home?

I didn't mean literally. :)

No. Forced entry is entirely a different matter from property
ownership. And given that cable is so cheap, and given that most
customers consider the cabling to be their own, the cable company
wouldn't expend the labor needed to retrieve cabling when it would
only anger the public.

Without any signed paperwork by you, they can't touch your inside wiring.
There's no way they can prove ownership. In my case, the Cableco that
may have installed the wiring (I don't know who actually did the install)
is no longer doing business in town.

I merely asserted that they could legally remove the cabling.

I disagree.

Access to it is another matter. In practice, it means that they can
remove or re-route or cut into wiring that they can get at when
you allow them into your home or premises. Our cable company
has the legal right to demand access to their trunk cable that
enters our property and to access their amplifier and taps, but
they must also schedule an appointment ahead of time with someone
who has keys to the storerooms. Once they have access to the
equipment that is theirs, they can do anything they want with it -
including removing it.

Equipment fine, cabling - no way without a signed agreement. Nor would
they want to.
