I thought data caps for home internet were a thing of the past…

I’ve somewhat recently moved back to a very rural area of the Midwest. Small town. No stop lights. Biggest businesses other than the bars are Casey’s, Subway, and Dollar General.

And we have one ISP (not counting DSL) — Mediacom. When we first signed up, I had to go with the second service tier. But not because of speeds, but so I could have a reasonable 1 TB/mo data cap.

Lucky me, they increased the cap to 1.5 TB. 🙄

I hope that in my lifetime I can see ISPs regulated as a public utility.

Im considering 5g home Internet because it's cheaper than cable, 50 vs 80

Check how much business internet would cost, there's usually no data caps.

I forget how lucky I am to live in a large city sometimes. 2Gb down, 1gbps up, $50 all in.

jesus. in germany i currently have 1gbit docsis for 40€, and a local company will install FTTH in my flat til end of this year

That's rough... No idea how I'd cope with that. I don't think I've ever had a datacap on any residential connection here in the Netherlands. Currently got 1gbps fiber up and down for 50 euros I think.

TV however is still a huge scam. I just want to watch football but have to have a billion other channels too I think. (Ima see if I can change this now lol)
