You're paying $130 a month for your internet?? Where in the price gouging place do you live?

    130 for 500gb fiber is an awesome deal in the US.

    I used to pay $120/mo for business class 50mb asymmetrical coaxial with like 10 up. Had to get business class when Comcast started introducing data caps on the residential tier.

    Now my ISP is bundled with my rent, so what I'm actually paying is totally opaque. No idea how much of my rent goes to Comcast. Oh, and it's not optional. I can't even get other service here because Comcast has a partnership with the building owners.

    Telcos are fucked here.
