How does fiber being cheap help them if no ISP is willing to dig miles and miles of trenches to lay it and connect to their home? I live in the middle of suburbia and don't have access to fiber.
Your comment about subsidizing their lifestyle doesn't really make sense. What are you subsidizing exactly? This tech is also useful in poorer countries that don't have the infrastructure at all.
