Re: gov't and competent???
The cities will have one item that gives them additional incentive to keep the system working correctly that $BC and Comca$t don’t have. The city agencies will use the system to interconnect with each other. The current providers use fiber runs and copper lines separate from the neighborhood links used for broadband.
While I’m sure that the cities will use a fiber network that is separate from the broadband Internet links, it will most likely be in the same bundles and use co-located equipment. This will give them additional incentive to keep the lines and equipment working properly.
Additional incentive, if they give the users bad service, they may be voted out in the next election. Even if they only do their ‘system upgrades’ on the same schedule as SB$ and Comca$t - just before their agreement is up for renewal - they will be on a four year cycle and not one that is 10 or more years long. |
