Does your state or local government have a deal with Comcast effectively awarding it a monopoly? There’s a fairly good chance the answer is yes.

I live in Portland, OR. I don't think there's a granted monopoly to Comcast here.

There is actually a small independent WISP here I would love to use, but they don't serve my particular location currently.
