    They won't see it that way. Our ISP makes no guarantee of service. It's usually so if it goes down (like after a storm) they won't be held liable, but they often use this to screw people over. Our ISP has a monopoly so they can put whatever they want in the contract and we have to take it. Furthermore, with net neutrality gone it's entirely legal for them to choose what websites we can access and at what speeds.

    Even if it wasn't legal, we don't have the money to take them to court, and they have the money to bribe the court, so they could just give us the finger.

    Is it Comcast? If so, there's your answer.

    No, it's not. Comcast doesn't provide service here.
