think about what you’re arguing against, Gump. internet speed transforms and creates new industries. shit that can and will change the world hasn’t even been invented yet. think about youtube- hell, think about your streaming porn sites! that shit would have never been realized during dial up days. these companies are circling their wagons for current profits at the cost of future innovations.
Every future innovation will come from streaming and the cloud, but improved servers are more vital for any net user in the future. The most that can come from increased internet speeds on the consumer’s end is 4K content streaming, and that will be a thing for typical consumers sooner than later thanks to modern codecs and data compression. Doesn’t require a fucking lightspeed internet connection nor will anything in the foreseeable future, and here’s why:
Large chunk of the world (including 30% in the US) aren’t even on broadband. Then there’s the shit broadband performance in specific regions (see examples in this thread). Then there’s the data caps. Broadband needs to improve as a whole before any true innovation comes around from speed.
Some muthafuckas only use the internet for checking websites and email, talking about they want Google Fiber. And you think that’s acceptable.
Our broadband is shit and that is well documented, regardless of how it came to be. Does not alter the fact that motherfuckers want excess speed that they do not even need.
The shit is this dumbassery? So we are expected to download 50-100 GB ps4 and Xbone games over the course of days?
You stupid.
And all y’all got better internet than Australia. Though I still feel for you cause if America had great internet then Australia’s follower ass policies would probably bump up our internet to keep pace. As It is, I pay out the ass for 18 mb down and 1 mb up but generally get about 3 mb down and 0.5 up on a spotty in out service that constantly drops… Watching pr0n is like playing hide and seek with my dick. Oh it’s back on, pull the wang out… Uh oh it’s stopped for the next minute to download… Put the dick away…
You know shits bad when magazine stimulation works better than internet video.
It’s like caveman days over here. Need DVDs and shit. Like the 90’s…
