Meanwhile, in an affluent suburb of Pittsburgh, two companies are pulling new fiber, where there is already a provider and fiber lines. Why? Because of this. No one chooses Comcast unless they are the only game.

I'm surprised they're allowed to do with with Comcast being headquartered in Philly.

A lot of giant corporations don’t shit where they eat. They treat the locals well so that they continue to get favorable legislation passed.

Pittsburgh is like 5 hours from Philly.

I'd assume they have the whole state locked down via the state legislature.
