Somebody's gotta have the inside scoop on Google Fiber launching tomorrow..??

https://fiber.google.com/savethedate/

Live broadcast over YouTube tomorrow. Anybody have any early news on this? Will it be available all over the Metro? How long will the waiting list be?

Anybody know anything? I'm impatient.

I didn't say the bill was good. You've started with a faulty assumption.

Everyone I know with the opportunity to get Google in KCK has signed up. From the full bundle down to the "free" Internet service.

I'd be interested to see the number of customers that have dumped TWC and others. I bet it's significant and the reason for this BS legislation.

If I lived in Kansas, I would be freaking out right now. I'm kind of freaking out anyway. This is just so wrong.

I don't think it has much to do with Kansas other than KCK was chosen as the launching pad for Google fiber. All the other providers have their panties in a wad because they're inefficient behemoths. Step 1: Cry to the legislature.

It's Kansas legislature basically outlawing something awesome for the whole rest of the state of Kansas. That's not much to do with Kansas?

Awesome?

It's government-subsidized internet provided by Google.

Make sure that it's clear - Google is not providing a private service. Google is providing a municipal network, in partnership with the city of KCK.

The Kansas bill doesn't prevent Google from installing fiber in other municipalities in KS as a PRIVATE ENTITY. They just can't do it as an agent of any city government or other taxpayer-funded institution.

I didn't say anything about the future. As of right now, 1GE residential Internet service is overkill.

Nice try at changing the argument though.

Shouldn't the KS legislature get back to more important business like rewriting science and history in their school curriculum?
