We had this in Utah for over a decade now (Approx. 24% of the State) via Utopia, congrats to Switzerland on finally catching up. I believe 10G is around $200/month and you can select from a dozen or so ISPs on the other end.

If you were really gung-ho about proving something to this annoying blogger I'm sure you could convince one of the mom and pop ISPs on the network to throw a 100G optic on both ends. Unlike Switzerland Utah lets you buy the physical strand of fiber outright for around $3k (Hopefully that's not too capitalist for you).

That's great for Utah, but most other places in the US don't have a system like that and are stuck with one maybe two ISPs.

Switzerland is 1/5th the size of Utah, seems like a fair comparison to me.

I don’t think Utopia lets you buy it now? In the past you could.

> in Utah

What percentage of the US population does that cover?
