| 1000/40 is rather asymmetric and the fastest service available in my area. |

| Now largely more feasible. We should try again. |

| Guess why it was asymmetrical in the first place ... Telcos wanted to sell the upload bandwidth to streaming companies. Another double dipping Telco monopoly squeeze and customer boxing / enshitification from very early on. |
