I'm really curious what these costs are to ISPs by having to comply with Title II?
I'm curious how complying with Title II makes ISPs not want to invest in better/more infrastructure.

Because it forces them to serve people that are not profitable to serve.

That there is the issue. The business looks at an installation project and sees a pricetag of X, and then say it would require us to charge X per month to recoup this in X years.
So they just don't want to. It's understandable, but also unreasonable, as improvements is what makes everything better.

Which would have some merit... if the governments, state and federal, weren't putting massive grants out there to improve infrastructure.

The issue though is businesses and residence over inflate the price of renovation improvements. So the grants while accurate, don't cover the costs.

That picture of Pai sitting there with a smug look on his face like he just shit his pants and is happy that it's out of him...
Screw this guy, I hope he gets hit by a bus.

For once, I'd be happy that a bus ran someone over.

And now the FCC is suggesting that Mobile broadband of 10/1 might be all a house actually needs. Which would make it easier for Chairman Idiot's job easier to roll back Net Neutrality. . .

Needs? WTF does that mean? for that matter, we don't NEED internet - if we want to go back to early 1990's life.

I'm not so sure about this. It's considered a human right by the UN, and a vast majority of sales and communication is now done over the internet. You'd have a serious economic collapse if we went back to pre-internet life, it would make the 2008 recession look like a good day for the market. Could we do it? Sure, we could also get rid of modern medicine and go back to blood letting and trepanning.
