Everyone hates their ISP.

What are your current expectations around price and bandwidth as the Starlink service becomes more popular in your area?

If you have the opportunity to have a fibre or copper connection directly to your unit, it seems like a crazy decision to consider Starlink.

Not really, I loved a local new independent provider that strung its own fibre around, but moved out of that building :(

They were particularly great because they didn’t (at the time) do phone or tv, just pure solid internet. No legacy industry to protect by limiting torrents or gb/month limits (fuck you Bell Canada).
