Besides Swisscom, internet is very reasonably priced in Switzerland. I had 1gbit symmetrical without contract or install fee and free equipment (including a standalone fiber to Ethernet converter) for 49.- a month.

Many cities or communities have built a municipal fiber network that any provider can lease and they’ve also wired up all buildings (inside) at the time. Only Swisscom (owned by the govt) is doing everything they can to get in the way of these municipal rollouts and keep the prices high.
