      Who doesn’t want 800 versions of “it’s fucking connected” for home Internet like we have for cell phones? Innovation! Think of the unnecessary choices, gotchas, customer service queues, class action lawsuits that are much more difficult thanks to the supreme Court a few years back… what’s not to love?

    100% anecdotal, but I’d say the spam callers aren’t even waiting. I’ve had more in the last 2 months than the previous year.

      I noticed a huge increase in spam calls back around September and they haven’t let up since. I had to set my phone to reject calls that aren’t in my contacts. If someone needs to contact me, they will have to text or leave a voicemail.

    Great, we need more corporate pests. I always say that when I’m enduring another quiet moment.

    i still think the “Broadband Facts” requirement was one of the top 5 things to come out of the biden presidency. i really hope that stays.
