So you represent all the Cable Companies? I though it was illegal for you to be a monopoly.
We're not. We're an oligopoly. It's the same thing but legal. We just all get together and make sure that we charge the same thing. That way there's "competition" but no one pays less.
Well if you can charge 10 times what people pay in countries with faster internet shouldn't you at least provide better customer service?
Why? It's not like you can go anywhere else. You'll take what we give you and pay 10 times as much for 1/200th of the speed common in South Korea.
So it looks like you guys can't lose. You own Congress, you put your own man in charge of the FCC, which was brilliant by the way. Is there anything you fear?
Google. We're all terrified of Google Gigabit Fiber to the Home. It's almost free and better than anything we can ever offer. We're busy trying to make it illegal for them to sell.
