Episode Details

When a politician says their city’s fiber rollout is world-leading, what would it take to believe them? This episode unpacks the gap between press-conference numbers and address-level reality. We break down three broken metrics — “homes passed,” “gigabit-capable,” and subscription rates — and show how each one can obscure the truth. Plus: who’s building honest alternatives, and why the last hundred meters from the curb to your apartment is where the real battle is fought.
