i meant canada. our beautiful young progressive feminist hero of a prime minister said that it would reflect poorly on canada's reputation if we don't sell $15B of LAVs to the Saudis. he literally said that. but no the true human rights crisis in canada is that you have to wait a few hours to upload your dumb

my biggest problem with low up rates is that if you saturate the upstream the latency on the connection spikes thanks to bufferbloat. QOS helps but it doesn't entirely fix it.

my only consolation is that the telcos wasted a shitload of money on that net neutrality disinformation campaign as a slight of hand to distract people from the thing they were actually concerned about. turns out that campaign was entirely unnecessary anyways since the courts took care of it

itt a bunch of computer janitors can't imagine what they would do with fast upstream bandwidth because they don't have fast upstream so they have no current applications that use it.

As part of the uverse rollout specifically in San Francisco, AT&T requested permission to install new above-ground MUX boxes with expedited permitting and no-cost for right-of-way/land-rights. San Francisco denied them for a bunch of reasons, among them the fact that AT&T refuses to allow other CLECs access to the new infrastructure.

Google probably tried to do the same thing. for a while there they proposed turning streetlights into wifi APs but that was also an incredibly dumb idea.

even if att puts it on the nimby's lawn they still have to cross or build onto the sidewalk to get to the street or telephone poles, and that requires permitting to prevent poo poo like cutting gas mains. it's the permitting and public-use licensing that att wants given away for free, and exemption from inspections
