How do you get around the problem of natural monopolies, then? Or should we be moving to a world where, say, a dozen or more separate companies are all running fiber or coax on the poles on my street in an effort to get to my house? IMHO, the only way to get real competition on the last mile is to have the actual fiber/wire infrastructure being owned by a neutral party that's required to pass anyone's traffic. -- Josh Sholes On 3/21/14, 12:28 AM, "Larry Sheldon" <LarrySheldon@cox.net> wrote:

"regulation" prevents "competition". That is why people want regulation.
Look at this thread at the people who do not want to be competed-with at L1, for example.
