I argue that a more effective measure would be to use the onboard data services in modern cars to calculate the $ cost of speeding! Sure, you CAN drive 85 MPH, but if you drove 70 you are saving $/hour driving.

Default human is a "Young Adult" woman, and the default "add something" was "woman with tatoos". I changed ONE filter (from young to Senior). It spun for about 20 seconds and then gave me the same woman'

The volume of affected businesses and the wide scope of who's impacted is kind of stunning. May not be limited to bandwidth.com solely. If you're trying to call a customer care number today, be ready for a bad experience.
