ISP's are already a disaster for consumers, with their totally deceptive pricing and invented fees.

Any new entrant can only increase competition and drive down prices.

Amazon as an ISP would be amazing for me. There's only one ISP that serves my neighborhood already, so any additional one would be a godsend.

If it's between no new ISP and a new Amazon ISP, I'll take Amazon any day of the week.

Kind of like Google Fi in the mobile service provider space, anyone, even if someone as otherwise bad as Google or Amazon, can potentially disrupt things and improve prices and functionality.
