Comment Does anyone trust Google/Alphabet products anymore (Score 1) 51

The only reason people use Chrome and Gmail are because they're free. Companies pay for their custom gmail domains, but they keep an eye on the exits in case they need to change email services.

If it isn't a browser (to view ads), an email service (to deliver ads), or an advertising service (to auction ads), Google has no interest in it past version 1.0 and the PR buzz that brings.

Frankly, I'm amazed they haven't stuck a fork in ChromeOS yet.

Comment Cox offers something like this already (Score 1) 226

I know a family who gets Cox "up to 100Mbps" for $10 because they're on a free school lunch program. Their uplink is 3Mbps. They might get that speed when their neighbors are away at work. In the evenings, they can't even get 1Mbps when the kids would need that connection to do their homework. It's a cruel joke at best.
