This question is probably relevant to everyone in the United States- but here in NYC, we are losing Clear Wireless for home internet connections (not a great option, but as good a deal as I could find, at least) very soon, so I need to find a replacement. And so far, the only non-shitty corporate conglomerate option is RCN. In this day and age, is there really no affordable, accessible, working internet connection for your average human?
Pilot Fiber offers high-speed internet to businesses, and has a waiting list for residential use, but that’s all speculative at the moment:

…and that’s about all I can find. Is there really no “indie rock band” of internet? No “mom and pop” shop? Nothing that’s cheap and simple and no frills but gets the job done and doesn’t gouge you internet?
