It all depends on if you consider network access a utility or luxury.
At one point, I think it was strictly a luxury ... but now, it's definitely a utility.

I would agree with that at this point..
The free market should only apply to providing the pipe ... not what services the pipe will give you better access to. david

Maybe the idea is separating the piping from the content which I guess
is what this is about.
I think there's something wrong too, with the fact that the smaller
ISP's from times past have been squeezed out apparently.
Local governments that gave monopoly franchises to cable companies, and
we that let our mayors and city councils go along with this, I think
sometimes that was a mistake. Let anybody build out that wants to.
Comcast serves around here, but AT&T has bought Bell South and I was
informed by a door-to-door rep that AT&T is laying fiber down. I think
there will be a cable competitor. Finally. Stay tuned...
