This.. We occasionally will black hole domain names on our caching servers that are being used for phishing/spear phishing and general 'badness' that we come across in our network.

This. I guess it's because Chattanooga doesn't have a million people or maybe because people just can't pronounce it. Whatever it is, Chattanooga has met ALL of the bullet points on that list. Hell, we PAY start-ups to come here.
When can we stop posting all this PR/crap/ about Kansas City and Google Fiber? Surely Google has plenty of money to advertise what they're doing. There are countless other cities out there that are doing the same thing, even BEFORE Google got out of the gate but you don't see those mentioned here on/.? Why's that? Is it maybe because the word Chattanooga doesn't draw eyeballs like Google does?
