Couldn't they have done it earlier ? instead of waiting until the elections ?

Most internet companies are screwy specifically because the government helped them become regional monopolies in the first place. This will make internet more expensive and worse. What is this even trying to solve? You can get fast internet in middle of nowehere Montana with Starlink at $120/month right now.

Yeah, I remember when my internet service got cheaper after Net Neutrality was repealed.
