The distribution point for the neighborhood was a green box out in a

back
out and buried the cable under the lawn, but in the woods the cable is
still out in the open.
This is not an unusual situation at all. More often than not,
these cables, FIOS or otherwise get buried, but to have them remain in
the open on the ground happens all too often. My brother's cable
system cable, not FIOS, has been laying in his yard for over six
years. Ditto some of his neighbors. Some folks eventually buried
their own, but for others, they are now virtually one with the roots
systems of the grass.
