I currently pay $45/mo for 75/20 DSL over 1960s copper. 3 streets over, they’re paying $45/mo for 300/300 fiber from the same ISP. You tellin’ me the FCC can punish them for that?

That bothers you so much then contact the FCC and tell them how unfairly you're being treated with your internet service provider
