It's 2023. Anything less than symmetrical gigabit is nonsense. We shouldn't have to settle for overpriced crumbs from ISPs.
Symmetrical gigabit is a bit much for a baseline. Should it be widely available for all, and for a good price? Absolutely. But plenty of people (probably a majority even) could be adequately served by something like 300 down/100 up as a baseline tier.
Today, maybe. But what about in ten years’ time?
