So I'm increasingly pissed off at ISPs and their prices. In my town, there's a choice of two providers. Time Warner/Road Runner or AT&T. I opted for Time Warner because it's faster. I have their medium package. Cable internet only. 12mbps down and 1 up. When I first got service a little over a year ago with them, it was supposed to be $35. There is no tax on internet service alone (yet). Since then, my bill jumped to about $45, for no reason. No one there could tell me why. Every month it's different. Always somewhere between $40 and $50. I can't really complain about the speeds I'm getting because they're typically better than I'm paying for:

So a couple of days ago I heard AT&T is offering U-Verse here now. Until now it has just been crappy DSL from them. So I contact them and ask: "Is the U-Verse actually fiber or is it just plain DSL." They said it was fiber. But it isn't. At least not here. So they're deliberately lying to people here, telling them they're going to get much faster speeds. They're calling DSL U-Verse fiber and offering the same speeds. MUCH lower speeds than I'm getting with Time Warner and it comes with a 300gb/month cap with massive charges if you go over.
FUUUUU
