You can already purchase 500 gbits internet in NYC, its just not targeted for home customers

@Henryc47 yes I mean as a normal customer

@strutheo Makes sense, but would be good to get a more precise definition of what “home customer” means

@Henryc47 i have to be able to go to the website and checkout and order it myself for a residential address in the area, no special privs or waitlists or early adopter stuff
