Nobody is forcing me to use Office or Teams, but I'm stuck with a single ISP.
Why won't regulators even LOOK at the ISP oligopoly? For fucks sake.
Because you probably do have at least two options for ISPs, it's just that one option is DSL and lawmakers still struggle with understanding color television.
My ISP overlords added fiber to my neighborhood and have stopped allowing DSL signups. Well they also didn't replace the copper in my yard (fiber is only available across the street and I've spent 3 years trying to get AT&T to come across to my side). So my options are cable, or cable, or T-Mobile hotspot (it would be against their TOS though).
