Not really; in my market, $300 to Cox gets you a cable line with like a third of a gig down (theoretical) and like 20 megs up, business class. Compared to that absolute shit, it’s amazing. If you don’t get biz, you get a 1TB (or 750GB?) cap that you can lift for extra money but they can still decide that someone, anyone, in your area or neighborhood is using too much bandwidth, even if they pay the extra for unlimited, and throttle everyone.

Several ISPs in NZ will sell you 10G fibre (advertised as 8G) for that, if you’re in urban areas with 100G handover links - otherwise, they’ll only sell 4G plans due to the risk of congestion.
I believe 1000/500 is now the most common plan as the cost is barely more than the 300/100 plans
Write to the FCC asking them to unbundle the retail divisions of your ISPs from the wholesale and physical plant divisions. And regulate the fuck out of the pricing and services offered by the monopolistic wholesalers.
