Well, I picked a few names at random. netflix pops up as soon as I hit
enter. Ditto Microsoft, outlook, Apple, twitter, instagram, reddit,
snapchat and facebook. Redhat is in a slower lane as is the Linux
Foundation. Even Ubuntu takes a while. But I don't get out much so
maybe some of you know some popular destinations that I missed.

It is incredibly annoying to be connected to a rather fast pipe yet have
to travel on what feels like 56k connection to get to where I can
benefit from it.
