Who are you kidding? With telecom company track records, they'll get the government to pay for it then just keep the money and not fix it.
Ya know, somehow I find it hard to believe anything they say. They are the same company who said their acquisition of Time Warner would lower prices and then immediately raised them. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2018/07/att-promised-lower-prices-after-time-warner-merger-its-raising-them-instead/
I find it hard to believe anything they say because they're at&t. If they said the sky was blue I'd go outside to verify it.
Hahahahah Love it! I can just see you, cartoonishly, rubbing your eyes at the sky just like, "am I seein' this shit right?" 🤣
Wait until people realize how much of our water infrastructure is built with lead piping.
The only thing keeping that piping from contaminating the water supply is proper water chemistry. If politicians cut funding to water treatment plants, this will be a problem. This is what Happened to Flint, MI.
Ignoring for a moment the actual story, it's sort of mind blowing to imagine that humanity has created 200,000 miles of anything.
Obviously we have, but it's still crazy. The earth is only 25,000 miles around.
