Why not switch to a non-shit ISP?
In certain countries, no ISP offers this.
The OP mentions he uses Comcast, which is an American ISP. I myself live in ‘socialist’ Europe and I can choose from 13 different ISP on fiber alone. Surely OP who lives in ‘free-market’ USA must have an unimaginable number of options.
Lol
You're just jealous of our freedom to choose between different health insurance companies to deny our claims for care and bankrupt us
Oh, I get to choose health insurance too. Only it’s not linked to my employer. And they all have to offer the same coverage. And they can’t refuse you for the basic health insurance.
Rural and suburban areas often only get one ISP in the US. Comcast specifically is infamous for using scummy practices to get (and then legally enforce) local monopolies. So the odds are not in OPs favor.
ding ding ding! It's the only option, and I hate it.
