Thanks for explaining this important point. Competition outside of the last mile would be good for everyone, and the last mile infrastructure makes a lot of sense to run as a utility.
That's exactly what I was trying to get across, if I did so poorly, I apologize.
This is _precisely_ the discussion I want to have.
Transit is not the same as interconnect, we should have some private competition, but if an entire city is all AT&T and Comcast, I'd rather just have it be municipal fiber.
I have no problem with AT&T, Comcast, Verizon, etc.. running their businesses over a combination of private and municipal networks.
