Chris Hansen's channel had serious quality and legal issues when it was new. Gus offered some actual advice and Hansen blocked him straight up after thanking him.

Yes, they started with 1TB caps. Now they've slowly lowered it to 300GB in many areas. They want to lower it until you have not enough bandwidth to use Netflix, and then you can turn to their 'bandwidth-free' ISP-owned services instead.

It would be like having a power plant but only providing electricity if your customer buys the electronics made by the power plant. Other company's electronics only work for 2 hours a day (arbitrarily).

They have the taxpayer-subsidized bandwidth, they're just holding onto it so they can ruin the competition.

That's anti-competitive and against the American ideology.

I totally get this. It's hard for me to convince myself to even start a trip, or feel prepared for it at all. I won't do it unless I feel totally prepared and even then it's still a world shifting experience.

In many areas, at least two of where I've personally lived, they started high and have been lowering it. Those areas now get 300GB bandwidth and +$10 charged for every 50GB you go over that.

Absolute insane nonsense. They instantly upgraded my residence to 1TB after I threatened to leave for a startup ISP in the area. They didn't just magically create more bandwidth. They've always had it, just wanted to charge me more.

Tenga Flip Zero is a technological marvel of modern engineering. I'm fairly certain that it's their highest quality toy.
