If I recall correctly Google started winding down their google fiber efforts after the title 2 classification. If they continue to slow it down, then you will absolutely know we are Fd and some alliance between the Online Oligarch and ISP has been formed.

Its not looking good

My understanding was that the big ISPs we're making if unprofitable for Google to continue with the fiber rollout. There were stalling tactics and general bullshittery around giving Google access to poles, conduits, etc.

I would switch to Google fiber in an instance if available. They just data mine. I don't think They throttle. We have time warner and AT&T. That is it. How is that for competition. At least in 4 years this president will be voted out and the new one will probably get rid of this.

I would switch to Google fiber in a second too. Not just because they are better and offer more for less, but because I cant wait till the day comes that I can tell Comcast to F off for good.
