"So far, no one has cracked the nut of getting extremely high-capacity wireless signals reliably through walls and doors"

Yes, they have. Maybe not fiber speeds.

The problem here is that people value freedom at zero but value entertainment (or even just big numbers on an advertisement) at non-zero.

That's the thing that bothers me about monopoly talk. It's no longer that some company owns all the critical infrastrucutre or all the production of critical goods. We are talking about a monopoly on exyraordinarily high speed internet which is really only used for entertainment.
