The problem in america is local cities will give monopolies to companies for providing internet. Very anti free market. The best thing to do is treat internet like a utility. Allow the state to build infrastructure and then allow internet companies to compete. Much like how electricity infrastructure is owned by the state but you can get your electricity from different sources that compete on price. Can even ocik green companies if you want. That's pretty good.
Another way but problematic is simply allow companies to compete and don't allow government to get involved at all. But it costs a lot of money to build necessary infrastructure. So many companies won't do it.
