Google was founded on a principle of "don't be evil." And the founders
are still in charge and still young. Nevertheless, this is a very valid
point. "Benign monopoly" is inherently a contradiction in terms.
In my ideal world Comcast and Google, and hopefully even others, would
be able to provide internet to my house. Then I would have a choice.
And we all know that with choice the quality of the service would
improve while the price came down.
