Something's amiss. Why is a fund created to solve a problem that no one seems to have discovered? From another article regarding this:
"No one was sure, on Thursday, just what those practical applications would be."
This is all positive on the surface but somewhat shallow on the inside. First world problem?
- wmf 13y agoThe problem (for fiber ISPs) is that people can't tell the difference between 50 Mbps and gigabit (and by extension the difference between cable and fiber).
- judk 13y agoFiber has one redeeming feature: if you have a 100BaseT-speed LAN setup, you can share an account with your neighbors instead of both paying for cable. Or more generally just being as good as cable can create price competition.
