    This comment has massive “I live in a suburb” vibes.

    I know people who would have to spend more than the cost of their house to get mains power or fibre Internet.

      They have to spend that much to install their own mains because none of the local telecom companies have extended theirs to service those customers despite having gotten grants from the government for the explicit purpose of doing so. 🤦‍♂️
