- tryptophan 7y agoNet neutrality is a completely difference issue. It has nothing to do with why its hard to make an ISP competitor.
- shmerl 7y agoRelated though. Anti-competitive ISPs also don't like net neutrality, since it's essentially aimed at curbing anti-competitive network behavior. Quite unsurprisingly, the same bad actors are usually opposed to direct ISP competition. I.e. if they oppose net neutrality, high chances are they oppose municipal networks as well. To put it differently, once they have monopolist mentality and anti-competitive behavior, it spills out to everything.
