Did not hear about that. He sucks, but Elmo sucks more.

I work for a small ISP and regularly talk to other small ISPs. We fight hard for this grant money, and what we do get goes into expanding fiber coverage. The gov't is getting wiser to the big boys pocketing the money and while it still happens, there is less of it going on now.

But all that said, we would overall be better served if internet service was nationalized.

That's known as Gish Gallop and it is, sadly, super effective because it always takes longer to disprove a lie than to make one up. And that assumes you can get peoples attention for the disproving.
