gollark: I think intellectual property definitely needs reduction. Copyright lasts waaaaay too long, patent weirdness basically stopped 3D printer development for ages, and trademarking-or-whatever "sky" is ridiculous. Also, you can patent some software stuff you probably shouldn't be able to.
gollark: In the UK, though, the situation is mostly that there are various different "ISPs", but they mostly use Openreach's network, which is sort of spun off from BT but not really. Although there are also cable-based ISPs (or, well, at least one?) and in big cities tons of high-speed fibre ones.
gollark: And sometimes cities and such are legally blocked somehow from running their own ISPs.
gollark: In some cases some local regulation stuff actively *creates* local monopolies.
gollark: It's weird how people have mostly gotten used to one of the most powerful people in the world randomly spouting nonsense on Twitter.
