I thought he is suggesting they are going to disconnect from
the Internet and run their own private net which is fine but
some customers may go elsewhere

We provide extra broadband content to ISPs with a SFI to us, we choose
not to provide that to the general Internet as the cost is too high.
There is also content that ISPs pay us to provide.
Plenty of choice in what he can procure for the pleasure of his

of the Internet
