We provide a service, not broadband.
The fee is all labor. The Internet access is a side effect of being
connected to our massive wireless LAN party.

So for anybody who heard this live info, was there any indication as to
whether we're subject to these rules if we're not actually selling
broadband under the new definition?
For example, if I sell 20meg, but not 25meg, am I not selling the new
"broadband" and not actually subject to any of this stuff?
You can try...

What about a monopole with wireless base stations on it? Could I stick
that anywhere unless someone stops me?
If you need to cross property with your pole line or underground line,
you can do so under the right of eminent domain. Landowner has no say
so. You go to court, the judge bangs the gavel, and voila, instant
ROW. However at that point in time the tables turn somewhat in the
favor of the landowner as you have to compensate them for what you have
taken.
That that typically ends up at a place where it became a very expensive
ROW...
What you are talking about below is the establishment of a prescriptive
ROW through your failure to defend your property. Another word for it
is acquiescence or adverse possession. You can certainly lose your
right to defend if you sit on your rights. So, yea, if they didn't
have an easement or court order, cut down that pole.

What eminent domain actions can a utility take? My "knowledge" on that
topic is all hearsay.
I heard of a landowner who saw a company putting a pole in an empty lot
that he owned across the street from his house. He watched them set
the
pole and then after the workers left he went out with a chainsaw and
cut
it down because they never asked him if they could put the pole there
(so the story went). In his point of view, if he let them put the pole
there, they have permanent rights to access that spot on his property
because of eminent domain.
You may even have the right of eminent domain now.
