Honours
gollark: This being the UK, the only ISP here that I'm aware of is British Telecom, who offer, at best (for here), "fibre" which is just a fibre connection to some green box somewhere, then VDSL over ancient copper cables.
gollark: Wow, someone has a *worse* internet connection than me!
gollark: E L E C T R O M A G N E T I S M, or the placebo effect.
gollark: The one thing I don't seem to get is push notifications, because they all run through Google Cloud Messaging or something. Also a working Play Store, but you can just install the official one on top of microG.
gollark: It *mostly* works and does waaaay less data gathering.
