The majority of states do allow municipalities to build and maintain their own broadband though, including 24 states with that have at least one community with their own fiber-optic Internet network.
It is possible that, in the future, these state laws will no longer be applicable. Congress has been working on a bill that would overturn these state laws, paving the way for municipalities to build their own fiber infrastructure.

Planning for the Future
When it comes to building fiber, whether it is an ISP or a municipality, building for the future is an important consideration. It is clear that the Internet of Things is growing and expanding, with new ways to connect our lives every day.
The more things we connect the Internet the faster speeds we need to power them. That is why so many ISPs and municipalities are choosing to build future-proof fiber infrastructure now, versus outdated copper that will only need to be replaced in 10-20 years. More than that though, they have to build for changes in population and economic landscape.
