Municipal broadband is not a small company though. It’s a cooperative owned by residents.

And in many states it’s actually illegal. Which makes no sense.

Probably companies like Comcast making sure there isn't anything to disrupt their monopolies. Another reason to break them up so they can't have that much power.
