I don't know, Project Fi is pretty awesome. There are so many industries they've disrupted for the better. They're certainly not as innocent as they were in the past, but they're getting a lot of disproportionate hate right now.

Google would have been better off with a decentralized solution subsidizing WISPs, than trying to build out fiber infrastructure using contractors. Google wants to be a vertical monopoly, which is a massive coordination problem.
Project Fi (the cell service provider, though I think it's just called Google Fi) is a very different entity than Google Fiber.
