I would not imagine silicon valley wanting into the landline business. Mobile perhaps, Google dipped its toes in that one I believe through acquisitions. Landline operators today are the opposite of agile, move-fast-break-things. Change control in telco is draconian compared to anything SV tech have seen. New ideas almost never see the light of day. And all of this is codified in regulations. It's comparable to the banking industry, though each have their own quirks.
