4. Well, you'll still access DemocraticUnderground...

...you'll just receive it at 6.7 kb/s

Good luck with the Sunday LOLCats thread...

6. The $25 caps at 4.2 kb/s. If you want the '6.7 kb/s Luxury Speed,' it'll cost you $35 a month. nt

9. To add insult to injury, our Internet sucks compared to the rest of the world.

I have to laugh when the Telecom companies advertise how "fast" their services are. Compared to South Korea, or Japan, they suck.

10. Bye Bye Open Internet!
