minus-square@Lost_My_Mindlink5•1 month agoI don’t need faster internet. If they had a 2mbps connection for $15, I’d be happy. Instead, the slowest is 20mbps, for $70. To watch youtube. Wtf do I need all the extra speed for???
minus-squareDessalineslinkfedilink18•1 month agoYou’re talking about the USA, not China. Internet costs in the PRC are much lower than the USA.
minus-square@Lost_My_Mindlink-17•1 month agoOk. Forget price. A 2mbps connection does just fine for watching youtube. What is a 50,000mbps connection going to do for me when my internet activity is so minimal?
minus-square@Cypherlink17•1 month agoYou don’t need to pose that question because you aren’t getting a 50,000mbps connection, as you’re not in China.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•1 month agoYou’re getting scammed by your ISP. That’s a terrible value. I bet they have a monopoly in your area too.

In America? Almost certainly
Unfortunately yes
