The kicker is, a judge recently shot down net neutrality stating that customers have a choice to switch to a different ISP if they didn't like the practices of another. Except, almost everywhere is a monopoly of one company and the consumer doesn't have a choice at all. It's really infuriating.

Or Phoenix. We don't have to deal with time warner or comcast. Our 2 ISP hate eachother so much there is no chance they will ever merge. The competition forces both to crank up bandwidth and bring down pricing. If comcast and time warner monopolize areas..good luck with that lol.
