Rural America's internet problem is not edge compute. It's the FCC constantly redefining "broadband" to include barely-connected households.

This solves nothing, even if you bridge the digital divide. It's also subject to local regulation, likely unprofitable and requires extraordinary headcount-to-compute ratios that will never displace Oracle or AWS. Their "pre-built logistics and power grid" would get saturated by 2 colo machines.
