    "it is impossible to predict long-term technological developments and the evolution of consumer preferences.”

    Defending the consumer’s alleged preference for slow internet? Sounds more like technological DEI to me!

    It is unfair to slower technologies, intentionally, because they’re inferior. Jfc. We should allowed to improve society somewhat.
