Re: Lol, Surewest bought by Google...ha ha ha ha ha I hear they're bringing dispensaries to DC. We have a lot of glaucoma here.
Google should pay up, this is a learning process. They need to realize they will face this in a lot of cities. If Verizon has to deal with it, so does Google. |

Toledo, OH | do you really think Google is going to expand this "service" This will be deployed (if even done) only in this metro area and then Google will claim its not a money maker for them and drop it and let the line rot if they can't find anyone to take it over from them.
Google isn't in this project to give the customers an option (which the human brain can NOT make a decision with more than 3 options to choose from). This whole Google thing was only to grab more $$$ from selling click information from the "customers of this service" and nothing more. Otherwise this would be built out in more cities while this is being hashed out in KC. |

You are partially incorrect. Google has so much money they could literally flush half a billion dollars down the toilet weekly and still be ok.
Their sites are set on cloud computing ..which requires minimum 100mbit symmetrical super low latency to work properly. I doubt they would even care if the network itself would turn a profit. The FTTH project is simply another step to get people on Googles core services.
THis is what makes ISP's nervous ...because Google isn't an ISP first...they just require ISP-like networks to provide the Google service they want to serve.
The government entities in KC, MO are fools ... KC, KS seems to have their ducks in a row. |

You have it backwards. Google isn't having issues in KCMO, it's in KC, KS. Two different govt and utility entities entirely.
And BTW, Surewest already has FTTH presence in KCMO as well as other suburban KC areas (though not KCK). |

| well it would make sense then to buy surewest up. Im sure they are merely fodder in the greater scheme of things. |
