They have access to/control of a large amount of mid-mile and long-haul
fiber built by/as GTE and Verizon. Additionally, while their resi/soho
distribution is all PON, they do have some excess fiber fairly deep into
their network in most markets and actively offer active-E service on it
for the right price (it can even occasionally be competitive). I
imagine they'd sell dark for the right price as well, though you may not
like that "right" price.
