What I have seen is plenty of tier usage, caps, and rationed Internet complaints. Except one user that did not like the idea of a 2 year contract for 250K up and down now 1 to 2 gig and that is on a dry day. I think back to the story of the 12” water line once feeding 20 houses now feeding 70 houses. I wonder if the pipe stayed the same size what would actually happen with bits vs. something more real like water. The interned is very redundant when it comes to that sort of thing. What comes into the pipe from one side can come in from the other side also. Connection traces are so fun to watch. On a bad day you may be trying to reach a friend in Calif. And watch it jump through Japan to get there. So my question is with a desire for comment what would happen? This is legit comment as it would tell me what TWC infrastructures need upgrades and why the price for those improvements is dropping. Water is much more dense then electrons so im not convinced of their arguments and I will still say if they stopped logging, shaping packets, monitoring everything, and what ever else they do and just provide a connection they could cut their costs by 3/4. Just send the bits from point A to point B. You know I have not seen many complain about speed on Stop the Cap. What I have seen is plenty of tier usage, caps, and rationed Internet complaints.
