The main fault I see is how do we augment your "facts" with other "facts".
For instance, I clicked on Net Neutrality. It's tough to truly appreciate the "net neutrality" dynamic of the past few years without understanding the backstory of Reed Hastings battling the ILECs (https://www.dslreports.com/shownews/Netflix-CEO-Comcast-Wants-Whole-Internet-to-Pay-Them-129154 https://www.dslreports.com/shownews/Netflix-CEO-Comcast-Want...), buddying up to Obama (https://www.businessinsider.com/house-of-cards-obama-2013-12 https://www.businessinsider.com/house-of-cards-obama-2013-12), getting the law changed in his favor (https://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/13/technology/fcc-releases-net-neutrality-rules.html https://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/13/technology/fcc-releases-n...), and now rewarding Obama in kind: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/21/us/politics/barack-obama-netflix-show.html https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/21/us/politics/barack-obama-....
It's almost as if it had nothing to with actual "net neutrality" at all since none of the horrible things have come to pass that were predicted.
Broadband isn't as good as it could or should be, but it isn't getting worse.
