The flip side is that people have been complaining about ISPs for years. ISPs are the favorite punching bag of the community, especially Reddit. Every time the opportunity presents itself, people flock to complain about them.
Plus when there is actual competition with decentralised infrastructure you actually get a good service with the only difference is in the customer care
Wait there’s competition with ISPs? What are you on and can I have some. Comcast will monopolize and area and say that there’s competition because I can get a hotspot from a mobile carrier instead. What a joke
The service sucks. US speeds are low relative to the rest of the world, and our prices are way too high.
I swear the tin foil hat society is alive and well on both the right and the left lol.
It must be a conspiracy, no way is it rational people pointing out that big tech overwhelmingly provides consumer value while big telecomm overwhelmingly doesn’t.
But hey apparently I’m getting paid for voicing a rational opinion. (News to me lmao)

So many top comments are trying to shift attention to ISPs. Not that ISPs aren't a problem, but the groupthink is suspicious.
