Virginia's Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) is attempting to block SpaceX's Starlink from being classified as 'Priority Broadband' in the state's broadband expansion plan, citing concerns over signal reliability, network capacity, and terrain challenges.

Google Fiber seeks organizations to test 20-Gig internet speeds in expanding markets.

Google Fiber is seeking eight organizations to test its new 20-gig internet speed tier in Austin, Texas; Huntsville, Alabama; Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina; and Salt Lake City. The company has been testing the service with the University of Missouri-Kansas City and is now looking for more partners to join its Trusted Tester program. Interested organizations can fill out a form and won't be charged for taking part in the trial.
