Make no mistake, this is 100% going to be Comcast’s alternative to more expensive surveillance options a la Flock, or workplace presence sensor arrays.

    In my area, they removed the data caps last year, when they also rolled out the higher upload speeds (eg the gigabit plan now has 350Mbps upload speed instead of 25Mbps). I don’t think they’ve rolled that out everywhere though.

    They also have a habit of keeping people on old plans that are either slower or more expensive. If you’re still using Comcast/Xfinity, check their site and see what they offer to new customers at your address. (you may need to use an internet connection other than your Comcast one, otherwise they may detect that you’re an existing customer)

      Good call, I will do just that until I have a better option in ISPs. Fiber has been rolling out around here, but it has been annoying build around my specific area.
