Google Starts Running Fiber In Kansas City

Posted by samzenpus on from the lets-get-it-started-in-here dept.

New submitter Kiyyik writes "After weeks of wrangling over shared space on utility poles, Google and the KC Board of Public Utilities have gotten their act together and Google is starting to wire Kansas City, Kansas today. They will be paying attachment fees and hanging the fiber optic lines in the space on the poles reserved for telecommunications. The Kansas City, Missouri side is still on track to begin a few months behind the Kansas side."

    As a Kansas City, MO resident it is exciting to see this happening here.

    And all it costs the residents of Kansas City is allowing Google to see everything, all the time. Sweet deal!
