Of course they did. They know the average person would see xfinity saying they have 10G and assume their service is 5x better than every other service.
Ads from large companies rely on people being braindead and not complaining when the product they get is a scam or false advertising. At least, that's how I see it.
10g fights the 5g that's turning everyone into gay frogs. You won't need the 5g blockers anymore.
Fraud is legal if you're doing it to consumers
If you finance the campaigns of the folks who make the laws anything can be made legal
In Canada we have (had?) a telecom company come up with Fibe Internet, to mimic Fibre Internet.
This is confusing, but the mobile gens are for cell data.
Wifi has 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands.
Internet service can be offered with Gbps speeds. 10Gbps can be called 10gig or 10g. That's also crazy fast for what's standard right now.
Verizon and TMobile have been advertising 5g home internet with a discount to their mobile customers, I think that is where Comcast is aiming these ads. To get people to conflate it. Most folks watching these ads don’t know what a gigabit is they are just thinking oh wow maybe Comcast is better.
For the people who do know what a gigabit is, Comcast is saying they are “building a 10 gig network” which means fucking nothing. I’m building a 1,000 story house. There are going to be 998 new stories on my house soon, you see! You’ll see.
The next one can be called "Series X...G"
Meanwhile my fiber provider actually offers 5 gig symmetrical for $150 a month. I don't have the network gear to do over a gig, but they offer it and it's a hell of a lot cheaper and better than Comcast.
I would be surprised if ITU lets them get away with that. 🤔
