Back in 2021, Google Fiber got a new logo after using just a wordmark for the past decade. The latest branding change has Google Fiber increasingly leverage “GFiber.”
It’s increasingly never coming to my area
I live down the street from them and worked there a while.
Still getting fucked by comcast…
And if it did, they’d shut it down three weeks after you had it installed. Adopting new Google products is a non-starter.
“Google” not as much of a selling point anymore? Or are they gonna sell it off?
Google has been using just “G” as a prefix for product names almost as long as it has existed. Remember Gmail?
But didn’t it start as gmail? Gsuite started like that, idk what else there is. But transitioning from Google X to GX I don’t think is something they’ve done much if at all.
Gsuite started as Google Apps for your domain
Itll be in the dust bin 2 years down the road so yeah no one trusts google products to be long term.
To be entirely honest I thought it had been already until just recently when I saw they wanted to expand to 10G networking. They’ve almost entirely stopped rolling out to new areas from what I can tell
They just rolled out millions in new fiber lines in my area. I had them for internet since 2018, moved out of their area, and now I am in their area getting their service again.
You are incorrect about that stagnation. Google has breathed new life into fiber offerings.
Will the Google hotspot be called GSpot?
GFiber sounds like one of those fly by night companies on Amazon.

The jig is up with that whole “amazon’s choice” designation, I didn’t notice that it was bs till recently.
Like of course it’s going to be the top pick if constrained to the same brand!
😭 I almost thought you somehow embedded an amazon listing into your post LOL
There are some keywords missing like ultra durable armored sleeve and maybe localized to fit the language with a literal translation.
For bonus points show something like badly photoshopped lightnings between phone and cable.(Aliexpress shows “Kirsche MX kompatibel Schalter” for Cherry MX conpatible switches. Not wrong but a bit too literal)
So I thought it was a fiber supplement branded by Warren G
It’ll last almost as long
Why is this news?
This isn’t a news community. It’s a technology community. Google & Google fiber are technology companies. I didn’t see anything in the sidebar saying posts like this are verboten.
I’m just saying why should we care about a potential minor corporate rebranding?

The “G” is silent.
So snoop Dogg is pronounced Snoop Do?
He do what what a snoop do
Just like iApple.
How much is it? Yesterday I saw an offer from a local provider offering 500Mb/s for 15 euro per month.
And the best deal available to me, in a major US metropolitan area, within 2-5km of the highway, is 100Mb/s down, 5Mb/s up, for $60/mo. On copper, with no fiber options available.
gigabit fiber connection is just 6$/month in ukraine
I mean, Google spies on you. Why would you let them be your isp too?
Naw, downvote this shit. Fuck Google.
