        If the article is correct, and the ISP involved is also a LEC, then
it would be pretty clearly anticompetitive, and the LECs have some legal 
obligations to provide access to their customers.

        I don't think any such restriction would also apply to a 
normal ISP, but that could change.  We'll see.
