      This entire thing of "speeds up to" has been standard for decades. I don't believe I've ever actually had the "up to" speed in all of my previous time being a TimeWarner customer who recently became Spectrum.

      Not once.

      Maybe they would like it if their salary was done that way too...

      "Your salary will be 'up to' $150kbpy (kilo-bucks per year)!", then just give them something sub-par like $45kbpy.

      Then maybe they'll understand.

      Right? "We'll pay you up to $45,000 a year based on some arbitrary factors". . . but in all honesty, we're only going to pay you $30k at most. . .

        They should advertise the speeds you should expect to get, for a fitting price.

                                AT&T and Verizon commit to suing any states that try to protect their citizens with net neutrality laws.

                                Please, PLEASE move to T-mobile if only on ethical grounds! Stop funding these monsters and enemies of the American public.

                                            They do. They know their customers don’t.
