Statement by UTOPIA Fiber on Attack Ads

“Winston Churchill once remarked, “If you have enemies, it’s because you’ve stood up for something, at some time….”

“At UTOPIA Fiber, we are aware of recent negative advertisements using misinformation to stop government-run broadband from operating, a message strikingly inconsistent with the plans and needs of many municipalities. In fact, it’s because of the inability of other Internet providers to meet the requests of communities across Utah, that we are often asked to help build out the infrastructure, lead project management, and deliver services to the home on major high-speed Internet projects.

“Today, over 60,000 households and business owners in 20 cities are UTOPIA Fiber customers and use our Open Access model to enjoy a better quality of life with blazingly fast Internet speeds offered at competitive and affordable prices. While others may wish to sling mud and devise attack ads to slow us down, we are focused on doing what we do every day, building new networks and offering exceptional customer experience to keep Utah moving forward.”
