"If the City deploys fiber, why should AT&T bother with any investments in the community?"

that's fine. if AT&T wants to ignore the future, let 'em die.
AT&T can wait until SanFran builds a fiber infrastructure and then sue to make sure they can provide service over it. That way the taxpayers fund the system and then they get to use it.

1 edit		 But they do not want that. AT&T competes by controlling the pipe. Take away that control and they do not have a competitive advantage over other independent ISPs. They will not sue to get access, they will sue to prevent the government from building and owning a competitive pipe.
