It’s not that nefarious, it’s more “we’re a bunch of wealthy assholes and we know the best way to make the most money without having to actually make something worth a shit is to privatize necessities and then monopolize them. You literally need to buy from me! Also, you lot don’t work hard enough.”
They know full well that internet is a necessity to participate in society.
That is why they are blocking it with every fibre of their being.
To them, poor people are poor because god is angry at them. They deserve to be poor.

I hate these people with every fiber of my being.
