Oooh, that's... surprisingly attractive to think about..


But If I go by the theory I developed, how would you buy the reversal of the entropical flow of the universe?

A realy big data center on the backbone with lasers and killer robots to garud it.

Some company was making a 100GB flash drive (thumbsize), so put a few thousand of those together, and awa you go, the robots... well thats a different story.

Well futtuershop sells exteranl 1TB drivers for around $300.

The real issue is the bandwith and geting a backbone connection. And renting the space.

I don't think I've owned anyone with my car, it's just a car... it's not like I'm the only one who owns a car either.

I'd build a cross country fiber network - and start investing in fiber-to-the-home in downtown cores but as a seperate endevour that happens to buy bandwidth from the nationwide network.

I'd used your imganry fiber network as one of the many uplinks in my imganry data center. Wink


Tho a fiber network that garuinteses neutrality and anamaity would be adamzing, epstaly if all the traffic was encrypted so even the USA could not get tap into it illgealy.

That's why I figure there has to be a good market for a neutral cross-country backbone. You'd get the ISPs who don't want to traffic shape, and if you price it right you could be very competitive with bell and rogers.

While at it, throw a bunch of cellular towers on top of that backbone. I want a wireless provider in Canada that doesn't suck. Since there's no competition, the best (actually "the only") deal you get for data is "unlimited" Facebook and a rate of $0.05 / KB. Oh, and it has to be an "authorized" device.

Compare that to the States, where for $99 you get true unlimited everything (data, text, voice call, video call). You know, a rate where you're significantly better off than in Canada, after just 2 MB of data (which is you know... just a couple of visits to Google Maps).
