Internet communication is inherently interstate commerce. I am not familiar with all the many laws surrounding interstate commerce, but the Feds are given oversight of such, in a broad sense. I'd start there, with respect to the FCC's jurisdiction. P.S. If you can buy and sell data processing (programming, analysis, etc., etc.) delivered inter-state and via the Internet -- not to mention physical things a la Amazon et al. -- then, from my perspective, you are looking at interstate commerce. The big, entrenched ISP's make a lot of money participating in this commerce. They don't escape the resulting regulation.
