Google Fiber is getting outrageously fast 20Gbps service::For now this is early access, but “most” customers will get upgraded eventually.

    I’d settle for DSL in my home town, 20 minutes away from a major city. Satellite is the only option available 😫 why isnt 100% of America connected at this point?

      Because Congress decided not to hold Internet service providers to account for the promises they made in exchange for not paying taxes 25+ years ago.

      Because America is massive, and half of the country votes for people who like to privatize everything, and private industry doesn’t make money building thousands of miles of rural infrastructure.

      I had DSL for 10 years. It sucks. Still better than satellite though. I’m sorry you’re dealing with that.
