I guess not all rurals are the same.
In my parts, being rural could mean not having a 2G/3G signal until you
have to climb a tree... not literally, but you get my point.

Multiple providers. I don’t think I should publicly name them for various
reasons. You are a smart man though and can probably figure it out from BGP
peering tables.

Here’s my take on USF. It’s a perfectly wonderful intent whose implementation

Instead of equalizing economic incentives for infrastructure between rural,

They skipped the enormous expense of copper infrastructure.

Which is what the OP of the thread I was looking at was doing, starting a WISP.
