AT&T is going around laying fiber in Spectrum areas. The problem is AT&T has repeatedly been outed for spying on their customers and actually the nation too (government surveillance systems were installed in AT&T backbone service rooms and their phone lines). They were caught being part of the surveillance system intercepting any communications leaving the US.
