I'm not normally for government owning things, but if a locality can run an ISP like Lafy runs LSUS then I've got no problem with it (especially if they are being run as a business and get weened off tax dollars so that they are fiscally independent). It's not always going to be so good, but I think being able to take it in a case-by-case basis (especially in very rural areas where private companies don't want to go) is better than waiting for a company that's probably never going to service your area.
