One thought on “Fiber network firm looks beyond Indiana for growth

  1. While I’m glad IFN is having so much success, why not invest a little more in Indiana? I live on the dark side of the digital divide, otherwise known as rural Montgomery county. We would relish the idea of access to fiber optic internet, but no one seems to be willing to provide it, despite a captive audience that is willing to pay for it.
