    This is how it works in a free market economy. The incumbent (oil and gas) is directly state sponsored in the US. > the US government alone spends $20 billion every year on direct …

    Indeed. Not sure why that term is misused so much. There's nothing dark about fiber that's being used. > A dark fibre or unlit fibre is an unused optical fibre, available for use i…

    As an AMZN stock holder, I love that this "competition" to AWS is hosted on AWS. Amazon still wins!
