Comment on Google Fiber is increasingly going by ‘GFiber’
Salamendacious@lemmy.world 11 months agoUnfortunately that’s not how it works. That works as an incentive to build not as a mechanism to bring down prices. For gigabit access in most markets that’ll cost at least $50 more likely closer to $100 a month. I pay $60

It should work to bring down prices because the network would be paid for and so there’s less of a need to make up for costs. Doesn’t matter anyway, since the ISPs just pocketed the money and paid it out in bonuses rather than build what was promised.

Should yes but the federal government doesn’t make conditions for the funds and if they do it’s just ignore without consequences.
