What?? This country is so useless. I've stuck with Teksavvy since I got my first internet account back in 2009. I think I was getting 5/1 over DSL shared in a house of 3. I stuck through all the data usage crap they had to fight against, through the years of deep packet inspection, through the price increases in recent years, and even with knowing that the Liberals and the crtc are both seemingly in favour of never allowing them access to the fiber network.
Wind/Freedom mobile is getting sold yet again, I just experienced cable-cable being sold to Rogers, and now Teksavvy might next. And for what; its not like they're bringing their fancy fiber to my house any time soon. They came by in 2019 letting me know they're making the plans to roll it out on my street. It never happened. All while I get to watch them install fiber in the suburbs.
All of that combined with the extreme toxicity and ignorance on social media, I'm personally prepared to go dark and just use public wifi. All I need is a way to torrent and I'm golden lol.
You can't really put your money where your mouth is if everything is extremely interconnected these days, and there just aren't any options. I'm sick and tired of Canadian oligopolies
