Thats why they need local franchise agreements

Telco's will not bring fiber to the "farm" because it is not cost effective for them. They base it on homes per mile, but most cable co's have to serve the entire community because it is in the local franchise agreement along with local studio funding ect...

Which is also the reason why you still cannot get cable TV in many rural areas.
