The political system in the U.S. considers bribes by lobbyists a First
Amendment protected variant of free speech. As a consequence, cable
companies receiving government subsidies for implementing broadband
coverage save a lot of money if instead of increasing broadband coverage
they bribe the politicians responsible for implementing oversight or at
least ensuring there is a reasonable chance for competitors to get
access to the market.
The FCC government agency responsible for regulating cable companies has
currently spent more than a year headless, with lobbyists sabotaging an
appointment for the leadership position after the last one had left.
Sometimes it is not sufficient to be good at developing technology...
