It’s my goddamn motherfucking mobile data and MY PHONE. I should be able to use it however I want. My wifi went down because the greedy, cunt-faced shitbags at Comcast stole taxpayer subsidies to enrich themselves instead of actually providing the service we’re paying for. I tried to switch to a mobile hotspot and my phone refuses to open one. Everyone responsible for this shit should be fed to alligators locked away in a fucking gulag. We have no rights and live in a corporate plutocracy.

    If it’s implemented well, it’s honestly not a bad idea. Just need proper security and and QoS and that extra bandwidth you aren’t using anyways can be safely lent out to others within WiFi reach. On the other hand, I trust Comcast in implement such a feature well? Heck no!

      The value is only for Comcast though. You’re a paying customer to provide a feature for them. There’s no discount to you as the customer, but they really try forcing people it use it and usually try to imply owning your own network equipment is somehow bad (because they can’t use your equipment for their business needs).

        You can demand they turn that shit off, though. Granted you have to call them, but they stopped those shenanigans right quick when I told them to.
