I remember everyone with any sense didn't go for those plans in a major way, and all the providers that didn't budget that way ate their lunch. This is something people forget: Comcast, Verizon and Charter don't give a fuck about sqeezing you they want to squeeze Netflix, Amazon, Google and Spotify.

I'm honestly eager to see that. I would love for Google to have a financial incentive to roll Google Fiber out nationwide because they're not interested in Charter making margins. I would love for Amazon to have to raise prices in order to compete on a level playing field.

I wanna see the FAANG stocks having to pay their cash reserves in order to make their customers happy.
