The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

Keep in mind all these internet connections you're looking at are shared bandwidth. Which means you're sharing a big pool of bandwidth with your neighbors if they purchase their internet from the same company. So the speed always depends on a few factors: including everyone else using that same bandwidth. Which is why you can run a speed test at 9am and have 60M download and 5 M upload, then run the same speed test at 7pm and get 10M down/2.5M up. Evening time is peak traffic for pretty much every provider.
It'll be a long time before cable companies do any fiber to the home stuff. Because coax is capable of supporting some pretty stout speeds. In certain markets Spectrum just launched 500Mbps and 1Gigabps, like New York and LA and some others.
Phone companies are having to make the investment to replace their old copper infrastructure with fiber just to keep up, cause DSL can only do so much.
However, cable companies do run fiber directly to some businesses for Dedicated Bandwidth (which means when you purchase 100M, it's 100M download and upload and you're not sharing it with anyone, it's yours) and secure point to point Ethernet connectivity to another business location elsewhere, that never touches the public internet. We also run business phone services like SIP and PRI over fiber.

Delta in a nutshell: Breeding grounds + small wetlands + big blocks of grass cover + predator removal + nesting structures + enough money to do the job= plenty of ducks to keep everyone smiling!
