Which is why it is the role of the government to handle that. Are there streets ? Why are there streets? They aren't worth it, right? So how come there are streets? Government can force ISP to lay the cables. "You want to lay any cable in that city? Then lay all of the cable in the region" easy
I wish. afaik in the USA, the major ISPs have been told by the government to expand internet coverage. Even got paid boatloads of money to do so. But the ISPs did jack diddly squat. So they got fined and that’s the end of the story as I know it.
