Or move. Sorry to sound like a Comcast apologist, but it annoys me when people claim that they’re being “forced” to do something when they aren’t explaining why the obvious alternatives are unacceptable. I mean, maybe you can’t move because of your job. Or maybe you can’t afford to move. Or you have to live where you do because of your health. Or you can’t leave the state for legal reasons.
