Comcast advertising “10G” in hopes to confuse consumers to accept slower speeds::Comcast says Xfinity offers 10G home internet, but the term “10G” is hazy and potentially misleading—especially because it has no relation to 5G for cell phones.
It’s just clickbait for under-informed people looking for another “cable co bad” article. Granted, they really should say 10Gig, but I genuinely don’t see how Joe Consumer would see that ad and go “oh wow! That’s twice as fast as my phone!!!1!!1”
I agree. It would be one thing if they advertised symmetric speeds, but they aren’t. The FCC will also have cable companies labeling internet plans with these soon. This seems like a nonissue.
