For those who prefer to read rather than watch, Lon's video details Comcast's move to remove the 1.2 terabyte data cap on its internet plans, introducing new speed tiers and offering price guarantees for one or five years, which also include the gateway (modem/router) to eliminate a separate rental fee. However, it's crucial for customers to proactively contact Comcast to switch to these new plans, as existing customers will remain on their old plans with data caps and fees if they don't take action, a change largely seen as a response to growing competition in the broadband market.
