Ask HN: Why doesn’t Apple finish what Google started with Fiber?
They certainly have the cash to finance such a massive undertaking. It could be step one in bypassing the cable monopolies, and maybe a precursor to their own voice network (blanket the US with WiFi calling maybe?). The impending FCC Net Neutrality ruling has got me hoping that someone will step forward and take this as a (long term) opportunity to shake up the market.
