IKR? The last time digsafe came out and marked, there were 3 separate AT&T lines twisting around each other like spaghetti, all going the same way and within 3 feet of each other. Like, you’ve already got conduit buried, just blow another fiber through it. Maybe some exec’s kid runs a horizontal drilling company.
Comment on Google Fiber goes big with 20-gig plan

Probably putting in VDSL to cash in on federal “high speed Internet” grants.

It’s so frustrating, I worked with a group that had their own community broadband council just to get broadband more wide spread in their county.
Those grants are ridiculous and on objection from another fed department about their grants creating a conflict or another coop claiming they are already offering can derail a whole application. Applications that are not easy or cheap to produce either.
Makes me sick to my stomach
