> If one ISP did some weird stuff that upset customers, the market had actually worked and they lost profits, making them reconsider The problem in the US is the telecoms are divided across neighborhoods in a way that you don't get a choice. I only have the option of Comcast at my apartment building, it's that or no internet / use a 4G hotspot / satellite maybe? My parents house is similar, AT&T offers internet, Comcast only offers it as a package with cable tv. Both just began offering maximum rates of 30Mbps down / 6Mbps up this year! And this is in the suburb of a major city. So when my ISP pulls crap, raises prices, or does something else I disagree with, I can't just change providers without also making several lifestyle changes.
