      My wife and I had a Comcast monopoly in our area for many years. We can’t say the word Comcast without following it with phrase “Rat Bastards”. Their service was deplorable, expensive, and obligatory if you wanted Internet service in my area. The rat bastards abused that monopoly.

      Then a municipal co-op built fiber near my house, and I’ve never been happier switching service in my life. Faster connection, less money, friendly local service.

      Yeah, I was gonna leave something spicy like “Comcast, the shittiest company in the Milky Way” in my response, but I didn’t want to detract too much from answering the question asked.
