Where I live (the Netherlands) all landlines (copper) have been replaced by fiber
Do you have a source for this? All I can find is this quote [0], which is a long way off from "all landlines":
> nearly 1 in 2 homes in the 25 largest cities will have KPN FTTH access by the end of 2021.

- teekert 6y agoMaybe I should have specified, "in my city", indeed, when the concentration of people drops, people are still on copper or on satellite or other wireless alternatives. The point is, the country is investing in fiber: Landlines. Allthough this may change when we blanked the country with 5G towers. Already I have 60/60 mbit in my home via 4G, approaching my current 100/100 fiber subscription. Not sure which is going to scale better in the future.
