Remember when FogCreek wasn't allowed to keep their generator going because they were not using union folks? Assume something similar for Google Fibre. The willing, streamlined governments will get it first. Cities like NYC usually want tons of concessions (It must be guaranteed in neighborhoods, not just rich ones! It must use union workers! You need to pay a telecom tax! Etc Etc).
