A Verizon rep told me the other day that their cellular home internet is just as good as my symmetric gigabit fiber service. Fuck these companies.
I just saw a Verizon sign today that said the same. I internally scoffed because how can cellular internet be more stable or consistent?
They use a radical new networking technique called “Lying, but with graphs”
10 Pbps | | } 200 Mbps | # # | # # | # # ------- V O E T R H I E Z R O S N

**measurements taken in test environment under ideal weather conditionsLoL, they misconfigured their test rig and it turns out they were measuring loopback’s bandwidth.
Didn’t Comcast change their consumer name to Xfinity because they were so universally hated? CenturyLink comes in at the top of a lot of the “most hated” lists as well. They own what used to be Level 3 who, shockingly, were also pretty much hated by everyone who had to use them.
Mediacom is even more hated than Comcast and rebranded to Xtreme.
Weird how all these companies are universally hated but insist people don’t switch because they’re awesome.
I threw up, just a little bit.
“Free market”
I’ve had Verizon Fios for about twelve years. They’ve actually lowered my bill three times and increased my speed once without me asking. That’s why I haven’t switched and will always seek them out in the future.
