4 Terabit Internet?! Fiber Company Tour! 

Fantastically insightful. But I have to admit it makes me so jealous to be stuck with my lone cable provider charging me $79 @100d6u. Internet is a utility. Say it until they believe it!

@@disastrophi WOWs charging us $63 for 30 mbit down and 5 up internet and were trapped with them until atnt fiber makes its way to our part of the neighborhood so 10 gbit speeds to me look absolutely astronomical.

That's a lie. At 2:39 you read TheVerge's article about the rescheduled PS5's event that was published on June 8th, we were well into the pandemic.

@@CarterPersall must depend on where you live as i pay $39 for 100mb if raise it i threaten to leave and works every time.

Why does the title keep changing?

I kind of disagree with that. The ISPs have different charge model from utility companies. ISPs charge for time you spend on internet, 24*30 per month, utility company charge for how much you use, per kWh or per cubic feet/ gallon. By provide more electricity or water or even phone call, utility company earn more money, providing faster internet won't let ISPs earn more money, so they are not interested in upgrading the network. I think government provide the pipe, call for bid on network building, let huge internet companies like amazon, facebook, google build the network or upgrade the network, ISPs lease and maintain the network. That could be a better option than just label ISPs as utility companies. Big internet company is interested in provide everyone better internet at a cheaper cost, which could lead to their income increase, so they would build the network even at loss, they could earn morn money from people stay on internet. From competition government spend less money on building network, without building the network, ISPs only maintain the network, which could make ISPs become a cheaper business so much more company can compete in the field, customers get better and cheaper internet from competition.

@@feifeigxx no, it should be treated like one, as in where everything is treated equally, whether it's RU-vid, Netflix, Disney+, or a competitors website

TheProG4merPlayz That's the argument of net neutrality, and I'm strongly agree with net neutrality. I didn't mention anything about that in my comment though. Treating internet as utilities is seriously slowing down the internet speed increase. No one except internet companies and customers are interested in internet speed increasing. Unlike water or energy or phone companies, who do have better income when customers have higher demand. I'm proposing the benefiting party(internet companies) of the network speed increasing as network builder, but have different owners and operators of the network. My idea could led to a regular network upgrade. Internet company would love to upgrade the internet so you stay on the internet. They would even give free internet access to poor people so they have more user and future customers. Therefore use their desire of growth as advantages to increase your internet speed. The net neutrality problem is actually not solvable. Remember that T-mobile and spotify offered free spotify premium? It was against the rule of net neutrality but beneficial to customers and completion since T-mo is the smaller carrier in the US. ATT offer their customers free HBO and it's not against the net neutrality ruling, because they own HBO. Is that really net neutrality and so good for the competition? I'm going to say by not knowing who operates the network, internet companies would build the network more neutral, cause they don't want someone use it against them easier later, since better and easier access basically equals to easier to attack. By government owning the pipes, they could invite local and other internet companies all over the country to monitor the build process, I believe if someone build the network so people accessing Disney+ better than RU-vid and Netflix, they would complain loudly and clear. You could also make rules so that same company cannot build the same network twice in a row. Since this building method could have regular network upgrade, by always having different company build a network, even someone truly build it to their advantage, by having someone else upgrade it quickly, that advantage won't last.

@@feifeigxx Agreed.

In Europe internet is a utility and heavily regulated. In France I pay 30$ a month for 500mb/s (around 430 on speedtest.net). I can cancel whenever I want. Because of the anti monopolies regulations, competition is thriving and prices are low. ISPs are required to let competitors rent their infrastructures so that there is no zone with only one ISP available. These prices and speeds used to be just dreams in the US, it was the same here before we regulated it. What's changed most though is the way the customer is treated. You don't feel like you're giving your blood to Satan every time you deal with your ISP. There no predatory practices, small print on contracts, ambiguous language, subscriptions where the costs increase without warning,.... It's now been the same with mobile networks for a few years. I pay 20$ for 100GB 4G with unlimited call & messages, roaming in most of the world, and unlimited calls to landlines in 50+ countries. You guys seriously need to deals with those vampires at the FCC and get someone there with common sense so what is seen in this video becomes the basic norm.

@Bizz Providers/ISPs are obviously going to slowly upgrade people's broadband speed. By slowly upgrading people's internet speed, this will give people a bit of a wow feeling that their broadband speed has significantly improved. The storage devices in our computers will have to at least match what broadband speed we get anyway. 4Tbit broadband speed would be pointless anyway, because we currently have no storage devices quick enough to write at that speed.

I live in Vienna and I have to pay 50€ a month for 200mbps via LTE which I only get at night during the week, mid-day I'll be lucky to get 80mbps.

Sadly without competition you do not get "insane speeds". My ISP in 2024 charges 110$ for 750Mbit and 70$ for 300Mbit FTTH. For me it is not worth to pay the extra fee for just over twice the speed. And they are still not offering Gigabit, because no one are competing in the rural areas. I just hope there will be future access to the fiber for other telcos, so we can get faster speeds at a reasonable price, because large bandwidth should not cost much extra.

Most of us the states are stuck on speeds that can barely be legally called broadband, and we're paying a small fortune every month for it as well. If you can get fiber, it's outrageously expensive.

5g will probably propagate nation wide before rural areas get fiber fast internet

@Liam no one said we don't. I said this internet standard will not reach us. And most Americans in city's have fast internet but out side of that rural areas are nowhere near "fast" internet. Especially not so at the "55$ for 1Gagabit" speed. I pay 70$ for 100mbit/s in a city in Massachusetts.

Due to corrupt data services here in the philippines

UTOPIA was not all rainbows and butterflies as portrayed in the video. But as the video correctly pointed out, UTOPIA is not an ISP. You a comparing apples and oranges. Perhaps if the same model was followed in NC it could have been successful. At the end of the day every elected official wants money for the budget. With an inherent revenue stream from private business, such as Franchise Tax for the right to run utility lines, it is as equally hard to push a Republican or Democrat to break the conventional mold. It is disappointing that you have hatred for individuals that have chosen public service. All politicians are prone to corruption; however, most are trying to do what they believe is right. As we fall prey to this next era in history we are currently living, it is fun and hip to create an outlet for blind hatred to blame all your dislikes and failures on a political party--as innocent as Hitler started blaming the Jewish. Where does this hatred go from here? Division. That is the real systemic issue.

Tb and ping don't corelate with each other

So you are saying in 2070 they can defy the laws of physics? Don't get me wrong: the ping can be improved, but even at 90% of the speed of light and almost no switching times (this is close to optimal) connecting to a server on the other side of the world will take at least about 70 milliseconds (more with Starlink), unless we literally drill tunnels straight to the location and even then about 45 milliseconds would be a fast as it gets. Connecting the east of Maine with San Diego also would still take about 17 milliseconds and that isn't "real-time" for some applications like competitive gaming. Just curious: Is that an Anno 2070 reference or was it just a random pick?
