Why would this be limited to Comcast? It is pretty much like this in every single market, Comcast or not.

Oh, look an article by Wired, which is owned by Conde Nast, which is owned by Advance Publications, which owns Bright House Networks and 31% of the Discovery Channel.

Let's try a new headline: Don't Blame Us. Blame Yourselves.

Thanks, corporate massa!

Yeah, this won't do a thing.

Even if they did "break off into smaller companies", do you really think they won't just pick their own areas to control and become local monopolies? It makes sense to do this, even if you're a competing ISP. When you control an entire area's Internet connection, they are your bitch. You own them and their money.

It's worked before and it turned out just fine. Look into the anti trust suit involving BellSouth. They had the phone market by the nuts but eventually people got fed up and they had to break apart which opened the door wide for competition.
