Unfortunately that problem space is so large (every new line of fibre has how many stakeholders?) that a single individual or organisation might not be able to have any impact here. Which I think is the root of this question.
- tbrownaw 4y agoIf there's above-ground electricity, there should be rules about getting pole access. And from what I understand those poles, and anything underground, work by getting easements rather than negotiating separately with every individual property owner.

Ever see the mess of cables in a developing country? The laxer rules that lead to those tangles substantially reduces the cost of building out internet.
