Comcast advertising “10G” in hopes to confuse consumers to accept slower speeds::Comcast says Xfinity offers 10G home internet, but the term "10G" is hazy and potentially misleading—especially because it has no relation to 5G for cell phones.

I did i.t. work at a Comcast and asked about it, I kept asking what the 10g memt, they said it's basically like a new brand. They already rebranded off Comcast to Xfinity because of all the negative connotation against them, now they're doing it again. I've met so many people that didn't know Xfinity is Comcast

They just changed their company logo/trucks from red to green too as if that'll change people's experiences with this shithole of a company.
