    Except that would mean awful wifi. FCC regulations stop ISPs from selling a worse product for more money to people with little to no choice in providers.

      That’s definitely true, and a good point to make. But yeah, the joke was that wifi signals can be stronger if they aren’t limited by the FCC’s radio power limits.

        I’m no radiologist (and video didn’t kill me), but I’m pretty sure that radio waves tend to struggle underground…
