Even google balked at the cost of infrastructure and abandoned Fiber.
- MR4D 6y agoI think google made a mistake. AT&T (and Verizon too) still has a monopoly on places because of cables that were laid almost a century ago. If someone figures out the next step of search, google could disappear quickly. AT&T, not nearly.
- three_seagrass 6y agoGoogle Fiber and Fi were focused on getting market incumbents to install fiber and decrease mobile data costs (respectively). They were not targeted at capturing marketshare, but purely tactical, and in that regard successful.
- adrr 6y agoGoogle is still expanding fiber. They wired a neighborhood near me and theres a vote on my HOA to wire our neighborhood.
