fun fact: most large ISPs have deals with cities that only allow one or two different ISPs this has been happening longer than NN has been in effect and repealing it is not going to change that. |

anyone who actually thinks internet companies have ever had an incentive to engage in market competition is a braindead moron. they by nature can't compete because they almost never operate in the same area together. they control the internet lines in their areas. |

Another company is not going to offer another ISP just because the people don't like the one they have. People have no choice but to use the bad one. The internet companies will (as they have done since they first existed) mutually agree not to compete so they can all price gouge their "customers". |
