1.6TB / second internet?



Hows this compare with google's fibre service? Heard there starting up in Texas soon...or might already be there.
 
I have 40mbps and it's overkill as it is. My problem isn't speed, it's bandwidth allocations. Especially a couple years ago when Comcast would literally disconnect your internet if you went over 250GB. As part of their rebranding to xfinity, last year they changed it to where they just charge extra $ per 50GB you go over, but we use 500GB+ easily (it's amazing how much b/w Netflix uses).
 
My user experience on the internet wont be increase with faster speeds.....I dont wait for anything now @ whatever I have 40 or 50 or whatever Cumcast has.
 
does this mean i could get all of the gay porn in the world in a matter of hours?

No. Jeffrey and Dwight alone produce more than 1.6 terabits of gay porn per second, and that's not even counting their weekly threesomes with I2E.
 
What twists light? Prism's? Good luck bros.

Fuck Prism's, I've got peoples working on Kaleidoscopes within Kaleidoscopes to dodge them Prism's!!!

The fact of the matter is that very few people will have these kinds of speeds any time soon, especially in the developing world...

Plus people with 50 or 100 megabit connections aren't even utilizing their bandwidth to its fullest, and even if they are, download caps are in place by most major carriers anyway.

I'm just snipping your post, Fatbat, to make a point. You covered quite a few other issues with your post.

I actually foresee developing nations having these speeds before developed nations. Look at how most 3rd-world countries went straight from needing satellite phones to place calls to using cellphones. They didn't really even bother with landlines.

The problem we have is that we are already developed. "We" complain about download caps and annoying company policies which keep innovations at a minimum because it is just "cheaper" to try and get a few more bits per second out of what is already there while the company just raises prices. These are first-world problems.

First-world nations have too much infrastructure to get fiber-optic lines everywhere, not to mention the telecoms preventing access to new carriers so they are pseudomonopolies. Third-world nations are where it's going to be in bulk. For one, it's going to be easier for installing it the first time. Then, once the lines are in place all they have to do is change out the crystal and laser on each end to improve the speeds. We can't do that in first-world because it'd require the companies to remove all the lines that are already there while laying the new.

Once third-world nations get all the good technologies and drive up new innovations to do with their newfound speed, then you'll end up seeing enough market pressure to get the first-world nation's infrastructure improved.
 
^^ You may very well be right, and I think we'd likely see these kinds of speeds in Scandinavian countries as well, since they've already strung fiber everywhere and have such low populations. I've got Swedish friends sporting 200-300mb fiber connections already.
