This is still relatable today, since most rural areas only offer DSL, Comcast, or 1 bar of 4G (if you're not using starlink let alone those other satellite ISPs that shall not be named!) AND they decide to throttle you, all that changes is the download dialogue's title bar being windows 11 themed 😉

That reminds me of the time I filed a complaint with the FCC a few years over Centurylink's "fancy" dialup (DSL, we had a 10 Mbps plan but frequented approximately 1 byte/s) and CENTURYLINK sent me a letter with my complaint in it!

Sounds like illegal muni/co-op networks are the way to go.
