    free public utilities

    I agree, but this will require political will. I think on lemmy people would vote for a government that creates stuff like this, but there are a lot of people want their government to spend as little as possible, unfortunately. I find it more likely we end up with a non-profit like wikipedia provides basic knowledge to the public, free of charge.
