coondoggie writes "What do you get when you mix access to Google's ultra-fast fiber network and old fashioned grass roots business ideas? Well, in this case you'd get someone living on your couch for free for three months.

Hell NO! They'd slow down my legal ISO torrents, rip off my 5TB music collection on the SAN and, if history is any guide, they'd start to smell after 3 days!
Hell No!
If they want to pay for the ISP and let me have 50% of their bandwidth, access to all their games, pron, and sports car, perhaps we can talk.
I'd need to kick out my 22 yr old, CS major, son to make room. Thinking about this a little more, it sounds like a great idea - I might get more of my bandwidth back after that other slacker is finally gone.
