They don't have a monopoly in rural areas. In many rural areas there is competition from another satellite internet provider, plus internet provided by companies like Verizon. HN is in rural areas because they fill a need, and without them, many of us would have no internet options.
The bigger problem is that the big cable/fiber companies don't find rural areas appealing. Perhaps your energy would be better spent in contacting those companies and asking them why they don't want your business. You could also contact your representatives in Congress to inquire what they are doing to bring cable, fiber, etc. to your area.
