This is a very valid concern, but what if a private small business provides me an encrypted broadband connection over municipal fiber, which saddles the city / county with the _physical_ problems, and sacrifices a little bit of latency and total bandwidth to keep my relationship with my transit provider separate from my municipal interconnect provider. Obviously there are continued risks with the crypto arms race, but if Google is being beam-split by the NSA, why would we choose a solution that uses more power, provides less overall individual freedom, costs more, and is slower, to guard against a bogeyman that's getting in anyway. We must always assume we are being wiretapped. Let's get a discount on being wiretapped, eh? ;)
