Joe Biden: We’re Taking Steps to Put a Stop to the Exclusive Deals that Landlords Make with Internet Companies

‘Because [of] those sweetheart arrangements, millions of Americans who live in apartment buildings only have one internet option’

BIDEN: “That’s what lack of constant — lack of competition does. It raises the prices you pay. So we’re working to fix that problem as well. For example, my administration, is — is — is taking steps to put a stop to the exclusive deals that landlords make with Internet companies, because those sweetheart arrangements, millions of Americans who live in apartment buildings only have one Internet option, and they can stop — if they can stop those exclusive deals, then families will have options to choose a provider that they want, and that means companies will have to compete for their business, which in turn means lower prices."
