Reply to comment by thedoormaan in Should the state regulate Internet service pricing similar to utilities? by wallet535
Super-helpful, thanks. And I guess based on what you wrote that the FCC truly does limit the states; I’ll do some Googling to see if there have been any creative legal attempts to do an end-run around them (or batter through them lol). Appreciate the insight.

No problem. I do think broadband should be regulated to some extent, but idk how much I would want an ISP to look like currently regulated utility companies like eversource or national grid because they are pretty much monopolies. There should definitely be billing and termination protection for consumers and I think state government should be able to regulate the prices of basic plans, but I’m not quite sure how that could be implemented tbh.
