Why should they have to? If anything the onious is on us, the consumers, to create an alternative that can revolutionize the market of networking. I wish situations like these, instead of driving people to say "Charge me less", would drive people to make functional alternatives. Mesh networks can easily achieve sub-3Mbps speeds for all users in a fair and relatively free alternative.
We have all the technology, we have the legal protection/laws in place, all we need is some people to do it.
Lidar for long-range links, high-power relay nodes in the 5GHz range or (for amateur radio operators) using the deregulated 11.4+ GHz bands (with multiple antennas at 150W PEP each), and hard lines where needed, you could easily create a network for the people by the people. The software side is already fully implemented by the many mesh networks around the world.
There is also a project called CJDNS [0] that has come up with a system for deriving IP addresses.
All of the tools are here for all of us to use and make our world a better, and more accessible, space for all. We just need to put it to real world use.
