        Their goal would cost trillions and still not be free. It would

Isaac's a good guy, and he's not trying to put you all out of business.
His model is essentially a coop, which is not uncommon in rural areas,
but in his case it's more urban, sort of a coop for hipsters. ;-)  (He
would NOT say that; I'm half-joking.) 

While that model may or may not work out in most of the US, there are
some successful Internet coops.  Guifi.net in Catalonia has >20k
customers and is growing.  It's a mix of fiber and wireless. But pole
attachments are a lot easier there than in the US.
