Just saw the Patriot Act Episode last night and did not understand how a city can setup its own broadband bypassing ISPs?
In: Technology
Obviously, you can’t bypass *all the ISPs* – you’re still going to need to peer with some sort of backbone provider. Other than that, however, there’s no reason that the city can’t be the one that builds & runs the “last mile” connections that physically connect to homes and buildings. All the technology is fairly well understood & standardized.
