Supply creates demand. Rural areas in the US and Canada get no fiber
- SupersonicScrub 7y agoNot to mention the massive populations living in underdeveloped areas in Africa.
- dvdbloc 7y agoNot to mention the populations in Urban America that simply don’t have access to fiber.
- wlesieutre 7y agoEven developed areas in the US typically are stuck with one broadband provider. If you do have a second one, everywhere I've lived it's been DSL service and I've never heard anything good about it aside from being cheaper than Comcast.
- portillo 7y agoExactly, that is the real problem, the lack of competition from terrestrial networks. In the US the ISPs operate as a monopoly. In most big cities in Europe you have 3/4 providers to choose from, which reduces costs and increases the quality of service.
