Not only has the internet become a vital part of our lives, it’s also become an integral part of the economy. Think about how much investment and innovation is driven by companies in Silicon Valley, all of whom rely on the internet in some way, shape, or form.

They also have the wherewithal to build their own infrastructure, which means they care less about the general state of internet connectivity.
