Can open; worms everywhere!

Of course you are 100% correct but I'm sure there'll be at least one person on here who will happily tell you how wrong you, the regulator and the rest of the industry are

Sorry. I also means to add that I agree with the rest of your post as well and this is the problem. Some people will moan about the implimentation of STM, or other similar shaping technologies but then when it is explained to them why they are used and that, if they really want a 1:1 always-full-speed connection to the internet then they're going to have to pay far more for it, they tend to shut up in a hurry.
