Re: The Great and Powerful Google Because Google thinks they're above everyone else regardless of who they are.
you don't see AT&T and Comcast or TWC out crying that they don't want to pay for ROW rights, and want to deploy above where they should on poles just to get free ROWs. You also don't see TWC NOT paying their bills for ROWs, like you do Google.
Google Fiber is nothing more than a beta and will NEVER go anywhere and they're not throwing in a wrench, just more of their BS to get their name out, because Karl can't type fast enough for it. |

 | Because Google thinks they're above everyone else regardless of who they are. And AT&T doesn't behave that way?you don't see AT&T and Comcast or TWC out crying that they don't want to pay for ROW rights AT&T cried about that constantly when lobbying for video franchise reform.
What's really driving your hate of Google Fiber? Are you employeed by an ISP? Your venom sounds so personal. So what if it's a beta? It's interesting. Symmetrical 1 Gbps service for seventy bucks! Yeah, let's all get pissed at this outrage! This site's readership is so !@@$% odd. |

| reply to hottboiinnc What are TWC's prices for gigabit symmetric FTTH service? Oh, right, I forgot. They don't have even 50M symmetric. Those ROW fees have got to be paid some way or other, even if TWC is paying more for them (and passing the prices on to a semi-captive customer base). |

 | reply to Alex J ATT does NOT demand to be above the actual requirement for safety of linemen and then demand they will NOT pay them their wages. such as Google did. ATT also is NOT making people beg for services to build "fiberhoods" the same as Google, just to get another Press Release out.
And a beta means Google will NEVER keep this project, the same as the Nexus unlocked phone beta, they dropped that like a rock after it did NOT take off. The same as this will.
And AT&T made it easy for companies like Google to actually enter the TV market. Google didn't have to go to KC they went to the state. |

 | reply to KrK And i don't like Apple either thank you. Got any more things I am?
And they do NOT want to revolutionize the industry. This will NOT change anything. If the MSOs wanted to do this they could every easily. The same as with AT&T
And being in Tulsa- this does NOT benefit you. |
|
 | reply to KrK the same as ANYONE ELSE that wants to pay for them. Pay for them or don't use them. It's that easy. Instead Google doesn't think they should have to pay for them. |
|
 | reply to iansltx And yes TWC does have those available, has since the network went FTTN. Just pay for them. Oh wait, that's not the thing anyone wants, they want it for FREE. |

 XiodenPremium join:2008-06-10 Monticello, NY kudos:1 | reply to hottboiinnc Yea, and all those companies likely to be laying fiber down in Chicago soon should have to pay for that too. I mean, why should the city allow a company to do something that benefits the city without making them pay an arm and a leg too? |
