This assumes that Facebook could afford to pay that cost, as ISPs know that Facebook is highly valuated, and that Facebook is willing to pay that cost, knowing that an ISP without access to Facebook is currently useless to the majority of their users.
- sulam 9y agoYou think people will use an ISP that Facebook says is forcing slower connections on people? I think you’re underestimating their market power.
