>>are monitoring and recording anything it can about your activity even when no one asks them to Both the US and EU have laws and regulations that mandate that ISPs monitor and store information about you. Blame your government for this.
>host terrible DNS servers True
>always injecting ads into your webpages when they aren't securely transmitted American ISPs do this? Anyway, use always use SSL and HTTPS in 2019.
>>when you are using HTTPS, they still attempt code injection, fucking up the packets when they get to you. Always use a VPN
>>are responsible for bandwidth throttling / capping True
>>cant even store passwords securely True, but 80% is because they are incompetent and 20% because the government have regulations that mandate them to be able to retrieve information about you. Muh Patriot Act and PIPA and SOPA and Data Retention Directive etc.
>>give you shitty locked down routers Always use your own DSL/modem/router/wifi ap combo.
Charles Bell
I am fucking tired of my Mother Fucker ISP!
Create p2p network like Meshnet! Good luck and godspeed user!

>Always use your own DSL/modem/router/wifi ap combo ATT fiber doesn't allow this.
Carson Campbell
Change ISP and stop electing politicians that continue to dismantle antitrust and antimonopolization laws.
In Norway, there was an ISP that tried this as well, forcing their customers to use their own box. It went to court and they got absolutely BTFO'd.
>Change ISP No because I'll be paying more money for worse service.
Jackson Hernandez
Doesn't allow is a strong word given you only need the att one for eap.
William Butler
If you're not man enough to act, then stop bitching. You're selling your principles and consumer rights for a couple of dollars saved and a better bandwidth.
>are monitoring and recording anything it can about your activity even when no one asks them to
you're an idiot. why would they take the time, much less all the resources necessary, to do this? they don't give a shit. if you get pinned for something (ie, piracy) it's because a third-party organization requested them to do so.
>host terrible DNS servers yes but these are easily changed
>always injecting ads into your webpages when they aren't securely transmitted
lol no. you must have a shit ISP.
>when you are using HTTPS, they still attempt code injection, fucking up the packets when they get to you.
what?
>are responsible for bandwidth throttling / capping
yes, but do you really know why? it's because people leave services like Netflix on ALL FUCKING DAY streaming shit. Netflix and other streaming services make up the majority of the bandwidth.
>cant even store passwords securely
???
>give you shitty locked down routers
yes, but you can easily get your own. if you can't then oh well.
>always, without exception, have terrible customer service
what company doesn't? really? any large company generally has shitty customer service.
Leo Garcia
Sounds like an american thing. No ISP here injects ads wtf
Ayden Sanders
comcast injects into http pages. Never heard of it happening to https pages
Nolan Reyes
>Change ISP That's not how it works in the US, unless you are willing t o pack your bags and move 20-200 miles to another location where another ISP provides.
That's not how it works against corporations, kid.
I would, Satan, but only 1 provider serves my area.
Parker Diaz
Lol, the US is such a dystopian hellhole. No wonder why Americans are so angry about foreigners all the time.
Lucas Garcia

you might want to move outside of the US. copyright letters from ISPs are absolutely unheard of here.
>So what do you base your view on the world on? >Mostly youtube and Jow Forums
