Comment Signs of a weak American Internet (Score 1) 227
- "Unlimited" plans with traffic limits
- Net-neutrality issues: deep packet inspection low-prioritizing torrent and SSL traffic
- Asking for money from 3rd parties to allow customers to reach them
All these "problems" are non-existent in countries with decent Internet connection. American ISPs provide crappy connections at high prices and they struggle to find new ways of scamming the poor customer, instead of upgrading their extremely old tech.
In my country you can pay 15 bucs a month for an external 1 Gbps line, and the provider will not say anything even if you do 500 TB of traffic each month.
The solution is easy, and it was in front of your eyes starring at you for more than 20 years: proper regulation of monopolies.
