They have a company to run and profits to be made so who is expecting them to run fiber in rural Maine.

NY, NJ etc are much better places to pick up customers.
Correct. Which is why these fiber deployments are going on in areas where people are going to buy the service, where people can afford to pay for it, and you have a large penetration of people.

Yes.. they will certainly deploy only in the areas where they can have this large penetration of people.

You have the Big Telco MO down to a tee. If the big ol' expensive phone company can't have this, they will not deploy. Thank you FCC!
