Observation Affects Reality??

In a free market economy, goods & services are only worth what the consumer agrees to pay. So apparently, we are all a bunch of fucking suckers!!! SmDh....

I was paying $58 for internet service, and the cable service was just as much, if not more. I called up to cancel the cable, and they said sure, but your internet is going up to $75/mo. I lost my shit, and then they said I could have the lowest tier cable for $12. So I can't even stick it to 'em that way.

Verizon is no better, they want me to sign up for a 2 year contract for service at my house. Nope.

LOTS more scope.
PL is getting weird.

On current topic here, I'm in the UK, on BT for internet. I'm open to suggestions: Something like the old days, modest charges, no bandwidth cap, own webspace and email service provided. Any sign of this now-mythical beast? If so, who's wrangling it?

I imagine Google is waiting for it's fleet of wifi weather balloons to be deployed nation wide.

I think they are waiting for the fiber to be upgraded to handle the load. It may take a while.
