Google Building Massive Fiber Network

After reading about google building this massive fiber network on DSLR and hiring Vint Cerf I have come to this conclusion:
Google is engineering a whole new protocol that will use their fiber network as means to provide internet service(which I am dubbing G-Fiber or Gable) with the possibility of nationwide Wi-Fi.

its been roumored that google is buying all that fiber, so they can build there own free ISP that offers 3-4Mbps of data and is ad supported.
if they did that there would be no more dialup

Does that mean low price because of the ads or free because of the ads?

1st i doubt even google would give something like that away for free, 2nd, i doubt that they are going to accumulate anything other than backbone connections for themselves, why should they bother getting into the last mile business.
