Yes this is talking about in the US.

Yes this is an argument started by internet based companies, but you know what? ISPs have flown too close to the sun, they deserve to lose their wings.

You provide data connectivity and you get my packets out to the internet at large. You are not allowed to sell wired and wireless service in the same business. You are not allowed to mention TV service unless explicitly spoken to about it. Your primary job is to continue to make sure that the internet service is operating. If there is an issue with that, you should be on site within 24 hours in most situations. The amount of money you charge for this should be strictly regulated, as should the quality of the service provided.

You should be forced, by regulation, to provide quality service even in areas where it would not be profitable to do so.

And you will say thank you in response to this. "Thank you for making this business a better service to everyone it interacts with."

You're welcome.
