My HOA bundles an Internet plan directly into their fees, giving me absolutely zero choice whatsoever. It’s exorbitantly priced too at $100 a month. It’s getting more popular to do this in my state because it blocks you from even using wireless carriers like for Verizon for your service. They take the money even if you don’t set up the service.
Fuck you commissioner and fuck everything you represent.

This is a massive reason I completely avoid HOAs. I don't want some busybodies deciding what I can and can't do with my property, and I'm okay with my neighborhood being less uniform as a result.

sounds like a perfect setup for a torrent farm. they can't stop you because you're forced to pay for it.

Some areas can be a lot worse than "less uniform".

The Redneck doing oil changes in his front yard is fully within his rights. Mind your own business.

Remember Lina Khan? She was there only a few months ago. Depressing as all fuck how quickly they’ve undone her work.
Edit: I mixed up the FTC and FCC

That's also not what I'm referring to. I work in real estate so I've seen it all:
- grass four feet tall
- a dozen vehicles parked all over the lawn
- fences fallen down and left on the ground
- the entire property being used as a landfill/scrapyard
- rodent infestations

do it. get a good VPN and do it. I know how these networks are usually architected - they probably will never notice. use as much bandwidth as you can over a VPN and they'll probably never really see it. also there's likely no bandwidth cap, since the fiber circuits that feed these units are also usually uncapped in terms of how much data they can pass per billing period, unlike Spectrum/Comcast/VZ/all the other shit ISPs out there.
I know I don't notice a heavy user when I look at my metrics and even if I did, I don't get paid to care. just don't get caught with your VPN off, they probably will see that and disable your service or give you a call and tell you you're being a bad user a la Skippy.

highly recommend using containerized torrents through a VPN.
I have transmission and openvpn containers. when the network goes down transmission can't connect since it's networked through the ovpn container.
once the vpn is restored, everything restarts and resumes where it left off.
ever since I've had this setup running, I haven't had a nastygram sent to me.
