Stop the Cap! reports that TDS Telecom has started their roll-out of gigabit broadband in New Hampshire. The first town to receive the service is Hollis, with Andover, Boscawen, New London, Salisbury, Springfield, Sutton, and Wilmot on the list. Even though Hollis has a population of just 7,600, this is still more coverage than AT&T's "fiber to the press release" roll out in Austin, TX.

The report states 1,000/400Mbps would be available for only $99.95/month with a $20/month discount if you bundle TV service.

    NCommander could serve all of Soylent out his basement with that kind of connection. Which, if you think about it, is strangely fitting for out little place. That's about as anti-corp you can get :)

    Heh. Yeah, until they whip out that "no servers!" clause that effectively means they can shut you down for any reason of their choosing.

      With that kind of bandwidth he may be able to mirror the site, but limit it to TOR on inbound. Two birds with one stone.

      If I had that connection I would be running a TOR exit node just for the hell of it to see what they would say.
