I live in Louisville, KY and Google came in to lay fiber a couple of years ago. They tore up roads and made a mess and generally failed all around. Finally, they pulled out completely and left us high and dry. It was a pretty bad time, really.
I just checked my address in the Google Fiber website and it says that it's "coming soon" to my home. I wonder what that means. Did they stop digging up roads? Are they doing something different now? What's changed in the past 3 years that allows them to suddenly come back to the cities that they abandoned?
NOTE: Just to be clear, I'm not completely unhappy with Google as I have AT&T Gig Fiber thanks to Google Fiber scaring the incumbents into action.
