I pay $50/month for 300/30 in the middle of nowhere. Symmetric gigabit is available for $80ish/month in small cities around me. Unlimited phone data is widely available and fairly priced. It's not impossible for things to be acceptable for the vast majority of use cases just because some predicted apocalyptic event which was hyped up by certain large players (and not out of the goodness of their hearts) didn't come to be.

$90/month for 25/2.5 Mbps here. I honestly never thought we'd see that kind of speed. In late 2015 it went from 512 kbps to 10/1 Mbps on a new system. Four years later (2019) they upgraded it to the present speed with no increase in price. It's all wireless and since we're in AT&T telco territory there is no chance of them doing anything (the phone lines have been in the ground since the late '70s), so this independent telco built out as a WISP almost 20 years ago. They're looking at doing their own FTTH in this area.

Wow, that is very expensive

I'm afraid to tell you what I pay for starlink for speeds much lower than that. Still very grateful as without starlink is have 20 M down and still pay $75 per month for it

Better than Hughsnet which was the only option for a long time other than cellular.

You, and everyone paying those absurd prices, is getting ripped off.

>Your speeds are shit and you're paying too much for them, and those "not bothered by data caps" just don't know better anymore.

None of what you've listed would be fixed by net neutrality.

Sorry officer, not intimately familliar with your american laws!

I've got a symmetric gigabit.

I could have five but what would I even do with it?
