      About 10 years ago, the muni fiber outfit in the town next door lit up 10Gbit fiber for their entire footprint. The price? $900/mo. It’s currently $300/mo, and they just turned on 25Gbit across their entire footprint ($1500/mo).

      There’s probably still a bandwidth cap and it’s probably still the same shitty 1tb everyone else gets with overage charges per gigabyte or some shit.

        They are pretty transparent on their terms on their website. No caps on any of their other plans.

        You are using shared bandwidth like all other residential plans, meaning that if there is no available bandwidth on the network you get what you get. That’s the catch.

        Turns out when you install bundles of 80Tb/s fiber long haul interconnects. Upselling to enthusiasts can be profitable.
