I want to know what people are doing with a 1Gbps fiber connection
that is going to save the world. Or create new jobs. Or make life
easier for people.
It's all marketing BS that the general public buys into, every -
single - time. I would bet that 99% of the population doesn't need
more than a 5Mbps or 10Mbps connection, at most.

I think we should compare amperage of average electrical services and

100 meg cable is available in my town, so people could raise the
average speed test result by simply buying more speed. Generally if
we offer multiple packages, then the overwhelming majority of people
buy the cheapest one; so maybe the US is really above average at
being cheap. We should focus on what we're good at and stop envying
our neighbors' phalli mbps.
</sarcasm>
The social and economic advantages of having internet service are
realized with 1 or 2 mbps. After that it's all entertainment, so why
do we stress over it?
