In some cities&#x2F;towns&#x2F;regions, yes, I would.<p>Municipal ISPs work just fine. Governments already provide (or contract with private businesses to provide) mail, electricity, water, sewage, garbage collection, roads, etc.<p>In an area that already has adequate service competition and coverage I don&#x27;t see any reason they would want to run a municipal ISP. But state-wide laws that inhibit municipal ISPs, in order to protect the current ISP duopoly status quo, don&#x27;t make sense either.<p>It&#x27;s not like it&#x27;s something that requires new taxes to run. And many utilities already have to run their own networks anyway.
