Plus, early adopters always get better rates. The first adopters pay for the rest of the plant to get built, then the rest of the customers are profit.

Not defending the process, but that's how it works.

I think most of us wanted to be early adopters but it's taken years to build out. We're what 2-3 years down the road and half the city still doesn't have it?

I would've loved to get this at $65/mo 2 years ago, but here I am still waiting and now I'll get the honor of paying $100/mo?

Tf?

Again, I'm not defending the process, but that's how it works, unfortunately. Taking years to build out a city's worth of fiber optics is a completely reasonable timeline.
