Thanks for the link.


I am tracking the Chatanooga and similar efforts and think they are fascinating.

The sad thing is that Chatanooga offers faster Internet for cheaper than the private option. They tried to expand out of Chatanooga to provide better Internet for surrounding rural areas and the Tennessee State Legislature passed a law saying they couldn't do it. Not surprisingly, that was heavily lobbied for by the big Internet companies. A similiar thing happened in NC.

I thought that HokieDan was referring to Comcast and the such being regulated like a public utility. I knew there was some debate about regulating ISPs as a utility generally but didn't think it had actually happened
