There's this idea about why the #internet needs to be widespread and accessible to all, when it is actually artificially limited based upon the interests of media conglomerates and network providers.
An apt example of this is the giant #Google being smacked down for over a decade by the central actor in control over lines known as #ATandT, who artificially controlled the expansion of broadband in order to maintain bottlenecks as a status quo.
The conflict of interest stinks to high heaven.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but either your local businesses put #fibre everywhere, your #government does - or you do.
It's a matter of #military #security to have a #network that has redundancy upon redundancy in order to thwart takeovers.
It should even go so far as your local neighborhood being it's own #ISP, that you and your neighbors can expand the capacity at will.
The #internet has become ubiquitous with #freedomofspeech and #organizational #power. Why limit it?
