They just lie about everything these days.

Archive: https://archive.today/UpT3X

From the post: "Comcast has reluctantly agreed to discontinue its "Xfinity 10G Network" brand name after losing an appeal of a ruling that found the marketing term was misleading. It will keep using the term 10G in other ways, however.

Verizon and T-Mobile both challenged Comcast's advertising of 10G, a term used by cable companies since it was unveiled in January 2019 by industry lobby group NCTA-The Internet & Television Association. We wrote in 2019 that the cable industry's 10G marketing was likely to confuse consumers and seemed to be a way of countering 5G hype generated by wireless companies."

I noticed this the other day, the ads that used to say 10G are now "gigaspeed" or some other gay shit. Those retards are literally trying to sell their inferior service based upon how "fast" the router is inside your LAN not what speeds they can provide.

They should be ma-belled.

Yeah, sadly most people are extremely stupid and have no fucking clue what network speed is or how it relates to their ability to do.. Anything.

The younger generation is just as bad too. They hear words like "10G" and are like.. OMFG THATS 10 GIG! No. it is not, you fucking moron. Look at the specs.
