Many telephone companies were at one time government agencies or privately owned but state-regulated monopolies. Telephone companies are common carriers, and in the United States are also called local exchange carriers. Most telephone companies now also function as internet service providers (ISPs), and the distinction between a telephone company and an ISP may disappear completely over time, as the current trend for supplier convergence in the industry continues.
