In 1982, a court order known at the Modified Final Judgment broke up the AT&T Bell System. This manhole cover currently sits about two blocks from the headquarters of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission in Washington, DC.

Not casting in iron particular companies providing infrastructure services is a radical idea that’s difficult to implement.
