Yours in Cynicism,
So I'm on temporary hiatus (is that redundant?) from uploading any videos until my 'unlimited' net regenerates. I *love* how ISPs advertise 'unlimited' internet yet it's technically limited to 10 - 20GB and then LIMITED. They don't say 'limited' though - it's not limited! No! It's 'shaped' - shaped meaning reduced to snail pace which renders it basically useless unless you like having enough time to clean the entire house and travel overseas and back by row boat before one page loads.
I'm definitely considering going with a company that has better rates and actual 'unlimited' downloads (do these providers really exist?) - if anyone has a kick-ass deal with an decent ISP, I'm all ears.
I've seen the Dodo commercials and checked out the site and the deal seems too magical to be real - I've heard so many Dodo horror stories back in the day when we were all stuck with dial up (I feel so old talking about dial up. Gather round kiddies and let me tell you how we used to get the internet! You couldn't use the phone and the internet at the same time...)
Anywho, Dodo says you get unlimited net, no limits or shaping for $39.90 a month. There has to be a catch here. I'm sure there's some sort of clause that says you have to sleep with their ugliest staff member for this deal or have to go on some mystical quest to pluck the hair off the chin of a 200 year old sleeping troll that lives in Tibet (the catch is, once you get there you'll discover he's had insomnia for the last 50 years). Call me cynical, if you will. It's just that every other ISP out there seems to watch to charge like a wounded bull for anything over 20GB per month.
I'd appreciate any thoughts and comments on the subject.
Yours in cynicism,
