- lotsofpulp 6y agoAs long as the government has a hand in the pricing and product delivered, I consider it to be government (for the purposes of comparing it to a rent seeking ISP that has no oversight). If ISPs were operated and regulated like a utility like gas, electric, water, then it’s not important who owns what. https://www.energy.gov/oe/information-center/educational-resources/electricity-101#who%20owns%20the%20electric%20system https://www.energy.gov/oe/information-center/educational-res... https://www.energy.gov/oe/information-center/educational-resources/electricity-101#p1 https://www.energy.gov/oe/information-center/educational-res...
