Google fiber was a flop as those of us who played in the ISP land knew it was going to be.

Being an ISP is running an sewage treatment network. It is not sexy.

I have a gigabit connection, and regularly verify my bandwidth. It's usually not actually in four digits, but I see 800+ megabit on a pretty regular basis.

Admittedly, not FIOS.
