> "take back what used to belongs to us in the first place"

Could you elaborate about how we used to be the owners of the ISPs?

Are you referring to the use of eminent domain laws to lay cable?




I think they mean the internet in general, built originally by the US government.


ARPANET infrastructure became redundant and obsolete after private entites made better and faster backbone links, and so was decommissioned in 1990.
