I still think Starlink is a bit too expensive right now compared to the other services unless your in the middle of nowhere.

Yes. I think it's targeting remote areas only.

That's promising. I hope it becomes a viable option soon. I'm really tired of not having other ISP options where I live. I already tried all that are available and they are all bad so I just had to stick to the least terrible one.

Well this is total bandwidth, not just the internet service.
But the fact that we are seeing a massive decline is another fact that adds to the deflationary situation.

Bro. Same here. Their monopoly is going on which sucks. Changing the rates abruptly and the service suck. 🙄

Internet should be free for all. ✌️

Yea I don't like that there are only a few companies that control most of the internet in the US either.

It hinders the net neutrality concept. I hope this changes all over the world. I can actually count the number of ISPs because they are very few. 😶

It's a few companies which control most of the Internet in the United States because the government provided subsidies to favored companies. This made barrier to entry higher than needed for competitors. It also didn't help that cable television companies got involved.
Along the way, older but serviceable technologies such as landline from the telephone companies virtually disappeared. Yes, almost everyone uses mobile telephones. But if an emergency or disaster takes place and and the cell towers get clogged or put out of commision, the landline serves as an excellent low-tech backup method for communications. The Northeast North American blockout of 2003 and Superstorm Sandy in 2012 validated those points for me.

Same here. The government only allow for some companies to operate which gives them no incentive to improve their services since they can rest assured that no other competitor will come to grab a bite on their market share
