Karl,
I saw some people didn't like the article, I thought it was well done, thanks for taking the time to point out how Google advanced the fiber deployments but didn't have the stomach to keep going. At least, that's how I read it.
I appreciate the effort and time you put into this article and the original.
I agree with you, by the way, Googe did more than the FCC did to accelerate deployments, yet the competition wore them down on the existing tules where they could. I think of Nashville, it was tough for Google and I think it was one of the last markets they did. They have the backing of the city, yet AT&T and Comcast were able to stop them cold. What a shame, but if they can legally block competition, then they will do it.
Thank you for putting this out.

Great look at fiber deployment via Google
