I’m all about thinking ahead but this seems insane. Really struggling to think of a home use need this these speeds.
I run a relatively small server for family and friends and I haven’t moved to 2gig plan because even that seems like overkill.
No one needs these speeds unless you have home office and even then it's a stretch. For residential buildings it might make sense, but USA doesn't have those or at least not as many. However it's far easier to iron out the kinks and issues with early adoption and aggregation is a breeze then.
I’m all for insane early adopters to iron out kinks I’d stuff like this. I’m sure we’ll need these speeds at some point but I can’t imagine the average people will in the 15-20 years.
I’d say this is more bandwidth then my entire road would need in total.
