Is your internet speed rigged? They want us consuming, not participating!

Also not sure what this has to do with the Fediverse.
Upload = decentralisation (federation)

What exactly are you wanting to host at home that you need super fast upload speeds, and how much traffic are you even expecting to see?
-
That’s most likely due to the fact that docsis dedicates most of the spectrum on the cable for download not upload since that’s what most users want. Now if those are fiber speeds maybe you have a different argument but cable networks are designed to give the most people the best experience and dedicating spectrum to upload would be a waste.
If you want to pay more, I’m sure your cable provider would give you a symmetrical cable plan for $400 a month

holy fuck what are you running, a space station?

To add to this, DOCSIS (aka what cable modems use) basically has a finite number of "slots" related to the way they transmit on the line. The slots can be allocated towards either download or upload. Most ISPs weight it heavily towards download since that's what most users care about.

The A in ADSL literally stands for "asymmetric". If you want matching upload you'd use SDSL. But generally you don't want that, because it sacrifices some download speed.

You’re trying to make some kind of societal statement based on your upload speed?
-
Cox won’t give them out to residential addresses.
-
That’s just how modems are designed. DOCSIS consumer cable modems allocate about 10× download bandwidth vs upload. Many cable companies further cap upload speeds, probably because most people don’t demand that much. People aren’t complaining, so they aren’t giving more.

Bro can you host a server for me?

Just ask your ISP for more upload speed (and pay for it). It's a thing you can do.
