> in the years that broadband service has been subjected to relatively little regulation, investment and deployment have flourished

Perhaps they are referring to the majority of the years/graph between 1997 and 2008? Which if they were, would make that statement true.

Even by saying that investment has increased overall between 1997 and 2013 would be true imho.

It's impossible for cumulative investment to not increase over time.

In theory it could remain flat, but you would only expect that as a precursor to bankruptcy.
