Texas is unlikely to lead the way on such legislation and will have to be a reluctant follower if this is to play out nationwide. In general they don't like to mess with the autonomy of their institutions, do not require the incentive

I think if more people had reliable always-on home boxes, software devs would have a better target for distributed tech (and one would expect it'd be incumbent upon the software to figure out reachability w/ ISP/NAT issues).
