- ryzvonusef 2y agoFrom what I understand, if one person in a Census block has Fibre, FCC considers they all have fiber. (please correct me if i am wrong, but that's what I understand from various articles on this topic) So if a census block is a dozen houses big, there could be 1 house just on the edge of a previous run, which has fiber, but 11 houses down the street where the Comcast or whichever has no interest in digging/trenching for whatever reason and thus they are stuck in dial-up land. (From the articles, it seemed this wasn't a fake scenario but common place) They all buy starlink and create a congestion, but they have no real alternative.
