Kill the caps! ISPs should just be dumb puppies with low margins.

    It’s surprising at this point why their isn’t some form of nationalized ISP. How is the internet, as far as infrastructure goes, any different than highways or railroads?

      Hard agree, and you can see some success stories here and there where communities get municipal broadband up and running. Legacy companies and GOP legislators on their payroll are very hostile to this however, preferring to loot the Treasury (in the form of subsidies) and continue delivering subpar service. Would be cool to see at a state/national level though.
