    why don’t we focus on getting more people to the very comfortable speed of 70Mbps before we give those that already have a good connection a better one.

    Those things are not mutually exclusive and generally not even the same effort

      But that’s my point. Why not put all your effort into getting everyone on comfortable broadband before you focus on getting people who already have fast broadband faster broadband.

      Maybe I just don’t understand the USA fiber market as I live in the UK, and if your phone carriers are anything to go off it’s probably a mess.

      Because here in the UK a company might own the lines, but you can be with whatever provider you want(you will just have to pay a line rental to the owning company), and the government has had a lot of efforts to get the whole UK on a decent connection. But that’s just my thoughts.
