I only have one ISP to "choose" from in my area

If it's fast and they don't censor shit you shouldn't worry about it. Most people here have the same ISP and generally the same phone carrier despite having 4 ISP's and 5 mobile companies.
But here's cheap. 10usd gets you 1Gbs line, 7usd gets you unlimited minutes within the country, 400 minutes roaming, 3 gigs of traffic.
For that 45usd a month I'd get all the TV channels possible and even a bunch of streaming services too.

Telephone landlines are a utility, just like wired internet should be a utility.

>satellite internet
Sucks and you might not have reception available.
>cellphone plus tethering to PC.
Gets massively throttled so you can't even stream videos.

You are ignoring that there is only one wired option for each consumer. The only other option you might have is some shit company that leases the same wires. It's too expensive to lay down wires, so only one company does it per area. It's a natural monopoly, like plumbing.

Paying $79.95 in Australia for 5meg DL and 500 gig.
How about you shut the fuck up?

Because making them "public utilities" means they would be (((FCC regulated))) like broadcast radio and TV, which is the last thing you want. Why do you think you can't say fuck on TV or radio? What you want is competition and advances in wireless technology, even if your retard-brain is too primitive to understand it.

>tethering fees
>90 bucks for 4G
>"unlimited" dataplan that throttles speeds after certain amount of bandwidth use
Hahahaha

Your internet lines were initially with subsidies from the government and it barelly improved after that point. So yeah, no.

Just use paper. It's not like your life depends on having internet

>not considered public utilities? I'm forced to pay

Public utility doesn't mean it's free anyway. Is this your first week being a grownup?

OK, so were do we get the cards so we can make a real version and play it?

rural areas are already being subsidized through incentives, so it would be even worse than that

Bellaggio is that you? lel

Haven’t played monopoly in ages. Loved this game as a kid

Most of the monopolies in the US with regards to ISPs are ones enabled by the government or local councils who collude to get exclusive rights in specific areas.

One thing you have to face up to however is that cost of provisioning services costs different amounts to different places irrelevant of competition. If you live in a block of flats in a city where there's already infrastructure, the the telco just has to lay cable a few feet from their nearest POP and that one job enables 100's or 1000's of new customers, so they can afford to make the costs cheaper.

In rural areas miles away from any other infrastructure they have to lay huge amounts of cable, often many miles, and they only connect up a relative small number of people so it's very expensive (often why councils/govt will offer exlusivity for some period of time)

What residential ISPs do is put all their customers onto the same backhaul network and they share the bandwidth and then they average out the costs and charge each person the same. That means that as a service most residential ISPs are subsidized anyway, the odds are if every person had to pay their own fare share for the costs they impose on the ISP for service provision, including covering the costs to lay the cable to your area in the first place, then rural residents would be paying at least 10x more than urban residents.

>Your internet provider and your cellphone provider are the same company
>There's only one cellphone service provider for your area
>who is AT&T
Something tells me you're an edgy corporate shill who's only here for GBP.

Sounds like a reason for the municipality to do the buildout themselves and retain ownership of the infra. Too bad about Verizon's fee-fees.

>he thinks bits cost money
JEW LAD

If you're rural you wouldn't likely be able to afford it, the bottom line is that it just costs more, especially if you're laying fiber and high speed equipment. It's really no different than if you want to plumb water to remote areas, more pipes and more maintenance to keep them operating over longer distances.

If you want cheap water you live close to a natural water source, and if you want cheap internet you live close to a POP. It's just entitled to complain otherwise.

You can use solar panels or a number of other things to generate your own electricity as well, so I suppose distribution of electricity isn't really a utility either, now is it?

Come to think of it, there are limited options for everything classed as a utility.
