Disagree. Utilities are also a shitshow and have defrauded the consumer.
I’d prefer that a baseline level of internet service be defined (100mbps symmetrical max, 100ms latency or lower ) and allow local governments and communities to provide that level of service to their constituents. If a company wants to compete above those baselines, let them.
I’d also let the baselines be re-negotiated annually.

Companies are also a shitshow who defrauds consumers. Especially ISPs. I don’t see how this is remotely an argument.
Like it isn’t even an argument. ISPs rank highest among the worst companies in the country.
Do you have a source on utilities defrauding consumers? I don’t doubt it I’m just not aware of it.
Does Flint MI count?
Insert Will Smith “Damn!” gif here.
Humor aside, yea, Flint is one of the most sickening examples of local utilities being effed up.
Politics, gotta love it. 🤦♂️
I mean sure but that, while (more) abhorrent and atrocious, isn’t widespread as like fuckin… Comcast.
