Re: gee, ain't duopoly competition great!

If he had the ability to build a network without any bureaucratic interference for decades with absolutely nobody to compete with them then MAYBE it would be level playing field. We can't have true competition until the playing field is levelled. The last time that happened was not long ago with the 1996 Telco Act.

Interesting how such innovations like true broadband and DSL technology popped out of the woodwork from Bell competitors at exactly that same time while the Bells were still selling old ISDN and T1 technology at inflated prices.
