I had a brief moment of hope that this might mean decent internet would be available to me, before remembering the entire reason I don't have fiber internet in-unit is because my condo HOA is a bunch of boomers who turned down the install. Kickin' it 2007-style with my DSL
- samtho 3y agoThis is infuriating and would have led me to start a smear campaign against the leadership ultimately leading to a vote of no confidence.

- jancsika 3y agoThis is infuriating, and if I were a filthy renter would have led me to start a smear campaign against the leadership ultimately leading to a vote of no confidence. And this being HN, the odds are high that you or someone you're close with already knows precisely how to leverage the outrage of boomers to your advantage. Think of it like stealing from the rich to give back symmetric broadband to the rich. You'll become a legend of the HOA; babies and access points will be named in your honor.
