With cable the all the customers on the segment are sharing the same

So if your the first one on the cable you have the full speed to
yourself but if your number 100 then you and the 99 other people are
sharing that speed.
If you're on Fibe, you only have your own wire out to the node in the
neighbourhood. From there, it's shared. Not much different from cable.
Forgot to mention, even with original ADSL, with the dedicated copper
pair, going back to the CO, the Internet connection was still shared at
the DSLAM. Several years ago, I was setting up some DSLAMs for Sprint
Canada, just before Rogers bought them. Each DSLAM shelf had 32 lines
connected to it, but all that traffic wound up on a DS3, which was 45
Mb. So, you had 32 ADSL lines sharing that 45 Mb.
