So the great unwashed doesn't have competition, what to do? I know get the CLECs together and force them to run a competing network. |

| Actually thats not a bad idea. The CLECs should merge all together; Earthink/New Edge Networks, COVAD, and the large regional ISPs that resell services from the ILECs and build out their own network- just like cable.
But instead of staying private they could come up with a public IPO offering and become a publicly traded company since being privately held they'd run into money issues. They could even partner with many cities to build and run their FTTH/Wi-Fi Networks.
I think it would really work out. Let the ILECs have their copper and let the CLECs build out using their own FTTH or HFC networks (hy-bird fiber coax (cable company system). |
