I remember that they actually got a law passed in North Carolina, I believe, that had a hilariously named law like "Save NC Jobs Act" which straight up made it economically impossible to create municipal broadband if it didn't already exist. It had things like: Municipalities had to add "phantom costs" to their rates and adhere to additional vague laws and regulations, couldn't use certain types of financing to build it, required public entities to make "commercially-sensitive data" available to private industry competitors, etc. If I recall it passed overwhelmingly just because of the name of the bill.
