I had a similar experience with Cox years ago. I was told I was 600 feet
from the end of their line and they would not consider extending it until
more potential customers were in the area. I mentioned I had received
numerous solicitations from them that were mailed specifically to my street
address and contacting the State Attorney General's Consumer Protection
Division in the same sentence and had cable within a week.............

Last mile
When we purchased the house in AZ, I found out that COX was in the
neighborhood across the street, but not on mine, and not likely unless more
houses are built.
So the options were satellite like HughsNet, with 50G data caps, or a local
wireless provider, Dessert INet, with dedicated antenna on the roof. Having
lived with FIOS 100/100 for many years, it is a down size for me. I cannot
stream Netflix during prime time. I have to rely on bittorrent for the good
stuff. But at least no satellite delays.
Isn't the net neutrality issue confused between privacy issues and paying
for usage? I'm certainly confused.
