Still waiting for ISPs to change their model ever since “net neutrality” was abolished. With all of this shit with YouTube, Twitter, and Reddit coming down the pipe it really does feel there has been a global change in how corporations are squeezing their customers. I am guessing ISPs are waiting for the bulk of services to change their model before they sweep in with their greed. It’s coming.

My ISP is my power company, which is a co-op. I'm actually really thankful I don't belong to a major corporation

If isp corpos start pulling shit like this, I'm out! I'm going to get a library membership & be done with the internet for good.
