Seattle typically doesn’t get hail core cumulonimbus (supercells). It’s not the same. Plus, I simply am bringing up an edge case since the person who originally replied brought up ships when talking about rural fiber (an edge case).
Just scarred from all the times where we spend x billion to expand fiber, it doesn’t happen, somehow nobody gets held accountable.
That’s because historically, major ISPs have been given the grants (including Starlink) instead of PUDs. Public fiber is entirely different, it’s managed and installed like a public utility, not a service to be capitalized on. This is why I’ve been so focused on saying that SpaceX should never have been given $1 billion dollars. It shouldn’t have been given to any non public organization.

Yeah, fair. Where fiber can be run fiber should be run.

I mean damn, at least Starlink is providing a service
