Nope, not opinion, just facts. You consistently go on a rant about cable providers and suggest people need higher bandwidths than required. Cable providers are fine for internet access for the vast majority of people. Choosing a cable provider for content is another issue. While I haven't used a cable provider for internet access there are plenty who have and seem happy. While I have had broadband access for 28 years and fiber to the house for 15 years, I wouldn't criticize those who choose cable for internet access. It is just bits down a wire and if it meets your requirements then it is fine.

As far as pushing a narrative, I have 30 years real-life experience in networking field, worked for an ISP, and am just trying to share some of my knowledge. Many Villagers have none or very little understanding in this area and welcome people who are willing to help.
