    Depends where you live. I pay $70/month for gigabit Fiber from Verizon (it works extremely well and rarely goes down or has issues). It’s also symmetrical.

    No ISP in NYC has data caps. We have 8.3 million residents. I’ve lived here my whole life, and I’ve never had a data cap in my life for any ISP.

    So I never understood the bs justifications given by Comcast and other ISPs who operate in less populated areas (most of the country, honestly). Like yes, I understand that no matter what they say, it’s about the money. But people in NYC would literally riot if we got data caps on home Internet.

    Why doesn’t the rest of the country push back?
