Thats the part that makes this double frustrating, it by all accounts should be a public. Back in the early 00's the US federal government basicly gave all these companies a blank check to provide "broadband internet" to every home in America (See the US Postal Service as them doing shit like this before).

They (ISPs) have since taken the money and done some of the work (with the promise to get it done some day, eventually maybe never) and the term "broadband" is borderline useless in terms of an acceptable internet connection. Every few years there is some skuttlebutt to increase the standard of what "broadband" means, but the last update set it at 25mb down / 3mb up... Which in 2023 is pretty emberassing.
