MODERATORS
The problem with rural connectivity is cable-miles per subscriber. When the US rolled out copper telephone lines to the boonies that was HEAVILY subsidized by urban customers.
Guess how much fiber has been subsidized by now.
Difference being: the subsidized copper was actually installed and put to use.
The subsidized fiber is mostly vapor.
Stolen, if you will.
