Community-owned fiber networks provide least-expensive local “broadband,” according to a recent study by Harvard’s Berkman Klein Center. From the report, David Talbot, Kira Hessekiel, and Danielle Kehl write: “We examined prices advertised by a subset of community-owned networks that use fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) technology. In late 2015 and 2016 we collected advertised prices for residential data plans offered by 40 community-owned (typically municipally-owned) FTTH networks. We then identified the least-expensive service that meets the federal definition of broadband (regardless of the exact speeds provided) and compared advertised prices to those of private competitors in the same markets. We were able to make comparisons in 27 communities and found that in 23 cases, the community-owned FTTH providers’ pricing was lower when the service costs and fees were averaged over four years. . . .
I was interested in this information. I think that new knowledge will not be superfluous to anyone, especially students can use it to write research at the university. For me helps to do this https://www.academicghostwriter.org/ But apparently, thanks to the thirst for new knowledge that I draw from various blogs, it would not be difficult for me to do the research on my own.
