I just cut the cable

That's it. I received an email telling me that my internet and tv would be upgraded and I would be paying more for it "promotionally", or I could opt to keep my plan, but oy vey, the price would be the same because it was not "promotional". Then I took a look on the concurrency, signed a "promotional" internet only plan and cancelled my bundle. Now I'm paying "promotionally" way less than I was, my internet is faster and I have one year until they try to fuck me again and I have to change company again.

Honestly, not a minute too soon. There's nothing to see on tv and the only function of a telephone line is being constantly annoyed by telemarketing call bots.

6 Mbps streams 1080p smoothly. 18 Mbps streams 4k smoothly. Cable companies sell a dream of being better by going to faster speeds, which are beneficial if you have multiple people all using a lot of bandwidth simultaneously. That's the only sensible use case for higher Internet speeds.
