Many of these remote areas are barely being served by companies at the moment because they’re not profitable (enough). Why would anyone object to the people just doing it themselves instead? That way at least they’re not at the mercy of some company that needs to earn a dime.

If the 10gbps network isn't fast enough in 10 years (already a hilarious premise), the same citizens who voted to invest in muni fiber to begin with could choose to increase their speed/capacity.
