Comment on When Google Fiber abandons your city as a failed experiment (2019)parent

Dug up your yard??? I am getting fiber in 2 months and they are going under my garden by injecting it with high pressure so that it "lands" in my service hatch under my house. Appointment after that someone will enter my house and connect it...

To clarify, do you mean that they just shove the fiber down an underground electrical conduit hard enough for it to make it to your house?

Yes. We have special equipment for this. Under high pressure they shoot the cable through the ground so my garden remains untouched.
