Japan Launching 1GB Fiber Optic October 1st

Japan is faster and faster when it comes to Internet Speeds. In United States we are lucky to have 20-30mpbs download/upload speeds at home, while Japan is thinking to launch 1GB Fiber Optic Broadband Service on October 1st.

Yes it is very nice to have that much of the speed, but how good is that for the rest of the world? I can see many people in Japan from? home running illegal – legal websites and servers which is already happening. I know one thing for sure, with 1GB down/up I could offer my self wireless connectivity to all my neighbors in range of 500-1000ft , and not to mention If I would get wi-fi extender.

I think it’s just too much for somebody to have 1GB of speeds, imagine if somebody would use that speed for checking email and browse internet, what a waste!
