Maybe Ars can look into ISP's jacking rates up. Fuck you Charter. I see that extra $5 you added on my monthly statement.

Almost all these companies run on an annual schedule where the price will keep going up until you hit the "standard" rate.

Gotta call and threaten to cancel (or actually cancel) to get it back down
