The internet is controlled by the local ISP.

TO put it bluntly; they suck. The speeds are SLOW and the prices are OUTRAGEOUS. Customer service is awful as well.

We just put an order in for 2Mbps connection (their max) for $99 a month. Thats ridiculous. Furthermore, their monopoly runs about 10 or so square miles.

Upon further investigation, the company is grandfathered in as the ONLY provider allowed in this area.

I have already wrote to my congressman and other ISP's, etc. What more can I do? Antitrust lawsuit? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22496312 Thu, 04 Jun 2009 14:35:54 EDT
