kudos:1 | Govt and existing backbone provider collusion. No backbone provider will LET YOU ONTO THE INTERNET without paying a fortune. Nobody can become backbone provider anymore (free peering), unless they have a mega corporation behind them, and all mega corporation negotiated already their own internet, or built their own backbones to all Internet Exchanges in the USA. And then there is the problem of govt cooperation, try mounting your own fiber line on a pole. You need Electric ANDDDD Telephone company approval usually, why should they give a competitor access to the pole? ANNDDDDDD you need local town/city approval, and they will want you to double their general budget for the next year, and bribe all the council/board members with lavish gifts before they will let you do it. |
