What is so very weird is that when I lived in Illinois, I lived on a five-mile long rural road that had maybe 10 houses total. The phone company installed fiber way back in 1990 and it was amazing.
Where I live now, there are more than three dozen homes in a four-mile stretch from the paved highway and the location of the last broadband node. And the same decades-old landline telephone technology.
