Data Caps... the FCCs' gonna "talk about it"
#5
The pricing by ISP's has rocketed exponentially.
In the last 10yrs it's gone from $35 bucks to almost $100 for just decent quality broadband. No company is offering the old two yr deals and rural people still routinely have dropped service multiple times a day. 

The ISP's are taking the same route the big hospital systems did 20 years ago going full profit with no checks & balances while still piggybacking on the phone systems/cable companies infrastructure. 

Xfinity's least costly option puts you right back into the good old days of AOL loading times. Guessing this marketing works cause the newer generations never experienced clicking on a website, getting up to have a cup of coffee an mow the lawn cause
You got time!
Not even talking gamer-speed juice. Just regular usage. The other companies are the same, so not picking on Xfinity. 
The FCC really needs to pull it's head out. Internet is a part of society now an just like electric or clean water or roads playing games with it isn't a option.
