Must feel good to be Canadian right now. Aye, @MattSpeller?
Implying it didn't before?
Guess it sounds like it, doesn't it? Doh! Just even better than before!
To be honest any decisions like this effect more than just the USA / Canada.
On a related note I'm tempted to start up a simple VPN service for Americans, hosted in Canada.
I'd invest in that.

Think anyone would pay for it? How much?

Check out services like Hola. That's what people pay.

Interesting read:

Someone needs to go through and fact check that release. Infrastructure spending by ISPs has actually gone up since the Title II reclassification in 2015 (correlation vs causation of course) at an increased rate that then the previous decade. If I had the time... man... basic economics would tell us if ISPs can't make money by nickle and dime-ing their customer base then they will need to invest in actually improving their infrastructure and customer service in order to compete with other providers.

Good for you Maine. Not letting anti-competitive laws pass is a great way to fight the impending loss of Net Neutrality.

I've got family up there. It's actually a really nice state.

I spent my childhood summering there every other year. I actually really love it. My family came SO close to selling the farm and buying a diner up there on an island when I was about ten. I almost grew up in a tiny little island town.
