It's interesting to me that they're using Ookla (speedtest.net) data for this analysis. For two reasons: First, I know my old Comcast cable internet used to vary widely - at 7am, I could get 80 Mbps, but at 7pm, I was lucky to be able to download the whole speedtest.net page at all. I rarely would want to run a test when it was fast, but as people started to sign on and it degraded I think the natural impulse is to do a speed test. Second, other providers like Google, Netflix, and ISPs offer integrated speed tests, so there's likely some selection bias for people who will still go to speedtest.net. Note - I rejected my Comcast cable in favor of T-Mobile home internet, it's cheaper and more reliable. Which really says something about Comcast mismanagement of their resource, they've got a coaxial connection to my house but T-Mobile can do better wirelessly...
