In Reply to: Get ready to pay more.... posted by Rod M on November 22, 2017 at 19:45:19:
Considering the usage I get from it, considering that almost all media comes through it, I have a cheap monthly price and no data limit.
It is worth a lot to me and I'm sure my provider is chomping at the bit to start imposing various charges. And apparently the providers are about to have their restrictions completely removed, in the name of free enterprise or something.
It's not like we consumers really have free choices. I have two cable choices where I live.
I expect the bottom line will start to move from 50 dollars per month into hundreds and what can I do I will have to pay it.
Is there any way at all this is politically popular? Messing with peoples' internet strikes me as a very dumb strategy.
