    "To retain this status quo, ISPs have spent decades writing and buying state laws that prohibit towns and cities from exploring community owned and operated broadband networks (...) which not only hamstring municipal broadband providers, but often ban towns and cities from striking public/private partnerships."

    Community owned ISPs are offering better service and lower fees? Better squash them in the name of the Holy Free Market!
