    Cool, can we get a crackdown on the ISP monopolies, please? I would imagine with our current technology, the only thing stopping us from having faster download speeds is ISP throttling in order to make up different tiers for exorbant prices.

      Actually the problem seems to be early adoption, at least that’s what my professor told me. Wealthy countries like the USA and Germany started deploying internet infrastructure very early, and replacing all of this equipment is now very expensive. So we’re mostly stuck with older tech.
