Comcast advertising “10G” in hopes to confuse consumers to accept slower speeds::Comcast says Xfinity offers 10G home internet, but the term "10G" is hazy and potentially misleading—especially because it has no relation to 5G for cell phones.

I really wish the government would crack down on this "unlimited" bullshit. How can companies like Verizon have three separate tiers of "Unlimited data?" It's fucking impossible to have three separate limits on a thing that is advertised as 'no limits'
