CCI is a service that has been designed to ensure that the various communities throughout the country especially those that are poor can access high-speed internet at a very cheap cost. The program collaborates with locals, counties, and municipalities; non-profit organizations, and other associations to develop community-oriented broadband systems. These networks offer broadband access to communities that can only afford costly DSL or satellite connections otherwise. Community Cable Internet networks can afford to provide their customers with faster connection speeds for comparatively cheaper rates because they receive their funding in the form of grants and are run by the local people. Connection speeds on Community Cable Internet networks are comparable to other big cable ISPs, and first-tier plans offering gigabit speeds are widespread. It enables the elimination of the digital divide as it gives distant and poor regions fast connection rates that allow residents to become active users of the new internet-based society. From students getting access to their study materials to employees contributing to today’s evolving economy of teleworking, Community Cable Internet networks open doors for the entire community. Subsidized rates are available depending on the income level of residents, which also enables them to have certain rates. From the above discussions, it can be seen that through collective action and the formation of communities, people get to control or have power over how they connect.
