Local telephone service is the least deregulated compared to long-distance telephone service and customer premises equipment. Local phone service is still heavily regulated by state and federal laws, while long-distance phone service has been fully deregulated since 2006. Customer premises equipment is also largely deregulated, with more competition among manufacturers and suppliers.
