Click bait with misleading headline. A better headline would be "Comcast plans to roll out personal broadband service at a higher fraction of current business plans."
>"Comcast's new Internet service absolutely crushes Google's offering, with speeds twice as fast."
It won't be symmetric like Fiber, so it's going to be (at best) 2x download and probably 1/x upload. This speed also only appears to be coming to Atlanta in the near future.
>"For those who don't live in Atlanta, Comcast plans to offer 1Gbps plans to almost all of its Internet subscribers in 2016."
This is bigger news, though it's still quite far away and not only will this not "crush" Fiber, where available, but will be strictly worse since it isn't symmetric, features Comcast customer service, and will surely cost many times what Fiber does.
