The Free Market Lie: Why Switzerland Has 25 Gbit Internet and America Doesn't

Quality: 8/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

The article argues that true competition in broadband requires shared physical infrastructure and four-fiber point-to-point access, using Switzerland as a model. It contrasts Swiss regulation-led infrastructure with U.S. and German overbuild and territorial monopolies, and discusses regulatory actions that enforced open access. It also recounts a regulatory case against Swisscom and outlines policy steps for other countries to improve speed and price through neutral infrastructure and open access.
