Reassuring and thought-provoking article, Tony. Thank you! The article talks about the many successful local internet service providers across the country which serve as alternatives to monopolies like Verizon. The article argues convincingly that such smaller providers can protect us from net neutrality rollbacks. Do such local networks already exist in upstate NY? Have there been any attempts or plans to build such?
