@lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @hj@shigusegubu.club Imagine how bad it is in the US. It's probably worse here
But yeah, IIRC, in the US (Could probably be the case for backwater parts in Canada, I remember lots of place still stuck with dial up way into the late 2000s), they're stuck with a single provider and that's what the episode makes fun of. No competition = They can do whatever the fuck they want

@lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @hj@shigusegubu.club What's worse is that this is the price we're getting WITH lots of competition and gov mandating that the big ones has to share their network, yeesh

@coolboymew@shitposter.world @hj@shigusegubu.club Yeah, it's like gerrymandering but applied to provider zones as if somehow that would make sense (at least beyond say US state granularity).
