I'm not sure I would characterize a $1500 access surcharge as "extremely competitive" but I agree we should run fiber to rural areas.

    If you’re referring to the dish purchase, they’re free these days. But even so, when your competitor is $200-500 upfront for a latent multi hop WISP topping out at 30 or 50mbps for $100 per month, a solid 300mbps for $130 and $1000 for a dish is cheap
