This whole chain is the opposite of reddit, because it's the one place where networking and comp sci professionals tend to gather.

And there is a whole world of working ISP models - which America specifically chooses to ignore and instead follows it's usual free market/competitive religion.

Your ISPs are playing your country like a fiddle. I have personally taken notes and look for firms making the same moves as them as it is an excellent signal of market weakness and, political backing and weak regulators.

I mean, your guys hid post codes in bids for territory during auctions, so that they wouldn't have to compete.

American ISPs are in the business of making money with the least amount of outlay. Buy telecom stock, because looking at the disarray even places like HN, is clear who is going to be winning.

By the by - google/tech firms- will never buy an ISP, they aren't interested in a single business in America which is not their core competency. Instead ~~they will let NN fall,~~ edit: it is in their interest to, collude/pay ISPs their price and use their deeper moats to purchase other firms or services at even better prices than they can afford now.
