AT&T Refuses To Upgrade Millions Of DSL Customers To Fiber Despite Untold Billions In Taxpayer Subsidies And Government Favors
Four years years ago AT&T, a company that, for years, cheapened out on upgrading its broadband lines to fiber, effectively stopped selling DSL. While that’s understandable given the limitations…
The fuck is up with our Telecommunications industry? Pocketing subsidies, rotting infrastructure, hacked comms for indeterminate amounts of time. They just fucken suck ass.
Regulatory capture and plutocracy, same as every other industry.
Monopoly!
The game Monopoly has hotels in it. You know what happens to executives outside of hotels.
Nationalize utilities imo
Honestly wouldn't make a difference now. The entire government has been captured. We literally just put a Simpsons cartoon character from the 90s into office.
They already ran the fiber down my road right in front of my house to the new neighborhoods down the way. They claim that my home is out of the area though for fiber.
Same. They ran it down our street 5 years ago but won’t offer it. A few streets away can get it though…
Was it AT&T fiber? I know that our neighborhood had fiber put in by a different carrier.
Yep, had att trucks and 2 other companies helping
Same.
