Tennessee sues FCC: Giving cities free rein to provide their own broadband is 'unlawful'

WTF?

OK can put this into simple stupid terms for me..

...as I really don't understand this. I guess not enough coffee / crack

FCC says local government CAN (not must) run local internet.

Local government complains it shouldn't be allowed to.

I just don't get the issue. Why are they complaining they are being allowed, not forced to to something?

To me, it just seems someone is being bribed / blackmailed big time.
