Time and cable and attt are not obsolete, were Americans were stupid, we vote for local power, well local governments are the reason no cpetition is there! Google will be hit with nogotiating with thousands of local tax autorities and thats expensive!

If you want google fiber, vote in politicians that will give google tax free and fee free ability to instal the fiber!

with the technology in most homes it will be like breaking the world record in the Olympics by 10/1,000′s of a second – something you can talk about but wouldn’t notice watching – and fees – really? really? you think that will last ? Already lose if you move fees etc. – human nature is to complain about what you have until you have something different and then complain about that -

I would love to see Google come in and destroy the old ISP’s. Case in fact, what the ISP’s did in North Carolina was to make it illegal for towns and cities to form Co-Op’s to have their own ISP’s for it’s citizens.
The old ISP’s paid off the key members in North Carolina’s state government so they want have the competition from the municipalities and keep the high cost, inefficienct service the norm and walk away with all the money without fear the serfs wanting to revolt….

Bang-on! TWC in New York state needs to see things from the customer’s perspective as well. Would love to see Google consider my area.

Before the dotcom bust in the early 2000′s tech companies and ISP’s were running fibre all over the country… after the collapse, most of it was useless but still there. Google has bought up a lot of it, and is activating it to provide internet/television/phone services in select metro areas, starting with KC-MO. Supposed to be able to give you 1Gb/s into your home for extremely cheap, compared to TWC and Comcast charging $70.00 a month for 11Mb/s.
