Google Fiber was planned to install in my city, but their only way of delivering service to most neighborhoods was by digging into the roads to lay cables and then covering it up with rubber. Well, they did a terrible job with the roads, tons of damage and potholes, and then they "cancelled" Fiber, so it was all for nothing. You can't even get Fiber in my city now, even though the uncancelled it.
