"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.

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.

Nice rant, but their behavior in Utah on Utopia begs to differ.
