That's quite a loaded statement.
Business buggery is not the only reason you might not get the advertised speed.
First of all, ISPs advertise "up to" a specific speed, which means that's the maximum bandwidth you're allowed.
It doesn't state or imply that you'll receive that speed consistently.
It means that, assuming the network is capable of that speed, if you were capable of getting higher speeds you'd be capped at that speed.
