At the quoted speed, I think they should be legally obligated to provide 15,821 TB of data transfer per month, at a bare minimum.

Oh, its actually "up to" 50gb/s, you may get a lower speed like 3.3mb/s.

We're hiring!

The job pays between $1 and $1,000,000/yr

I rarely get the top speed that I pay for. At least I'm not paying $900/month for the same speed.

Earlier this year fiber became available to my house, switched providers in a heartbeat to ditch cable. Saved more than half my monthly bill and I get a consistent 945 every time I test it. Rubbing my nipples while telling Cox to go Cox themselves was a high I lived off of for a couple months.
