Fibre deployment is getting cheaper and easier. Both in terms of cost of materials and in the equipment and labour skills.

It’s also much more secure from interference and disruption.

For populated areas, there’s zero justification to rollout wireless over fibre lines. And most major cities already have fibre in most, or many, areas. And the thing with fibre is that the physical lines can be used to deploy faster speeds with upgraded endpoints.

Tech bros would have you think physical connections aren’t a good choice anymore, because laying down fibre isn’t sexy enough for that VC money.
