you are correct

2018-12-12 19:57:34 UTC  

if you assume **ceteris paribus**

2018-12-12 19:57:39 UTC  

Let me give you an example

2018-12-12 19:57:44 UTC  

ISPs are monopolised you agree?

2018-12-12 19:57:45 UTC  

in USA?

2018-12-12 19:57:48 UTC  

yes

2018-12-12 19:57:52 UTC  

do you understand why?

2018-12-12 19:57:58 UTC  

because of regulation

2018-12-12 19:58:00 UTC  

Regulations such as net neutrality and zoning laws

2018-12-12 19:58:01 UTC  

correct

2018-12-12 19:58:08 UTC  

healthcare hospitals is monopolised

2018-12-12 19:58:11 UTC  

and prices are soaring

2018-12-12 19:58:13 UTC  

why?

2018-12-12 19:58:22 UTC  

Over regulation of the market

2018-12-12 19:58:24 UTC  

i dont think net nautrality caused the problem of ISP monopolies but ok

2018-12-12 19:58:41 UTC  

it's mostly the special status that some local governments give these ISPs

2018-12-12 19:58:57 UTC  

Net neutrality limited competition

2018-12-12 19:59:03 UTC  

this video explains it

2018-12-12 19:59:11 UTC  

it was made by a network engineer

2018-12-12 19:59:27 UTC  

Don't know what ben said

2018-12-12 19:59:41 UTC  

he basically said more regulation = bad

2018-12-12 19:59:42 UTC  

Net neutrality isn't the sole cause of the ISP monopolisation

2018-12-12 19:59:45 UTC  

yes

2018-12-12 19:59:49 UTC  

it was the zoning laws

2018-12-12 20:00:03 UTC  

yes zoning laws are probably the biggest reason

2018-12-12 20:00:06 UTC  

this is wrong already

2018-12-12 20:00:07 UTC  

then again im not american

The act of 1996 specifically stats that broadband internet service providers were not classified as telecommunications carriers

2018-12-12 20:01:35 UTC  

therefore not subject to the regulations

2018-12-12 20:01:46 UTC  

It didn't even exist until 2003

2018-12-12 20:01:49 UTC  

the name itself

2018-12-12 20:02:45 UTC  

in any case

2018-12-12 20:02:58 UTC  

you're right some regulations may possibly be good

2018-12-12 20:03:05 UTC  

97% of the time however...

2018-12-12 20:03:13 UTC  

rregulation isnt always bad and can provide better conditions

2018-12-12 20:03:35 UTC  

I'm from europe and here there is a pretty healthy balance

2018-12-12 20:03:39 UTC  

some times it can get bad

2018-12-12 20:03:52 UTC  

but generally speaking regulations here a level headed

2018-12-12 20:04:10 UTC  

but with all that is happening with the EU things are changing for the worse though
