Bits vs bytes Memes

Paying for 150 Mb/s but getting 18.75 MB/s? That's not a scam—that's just the classic bits vs bytes switcheroo! ISPs advertise in megabits (Mb) but your downloads show in megabytes (MB). Since 8 bits = 1 byte, your "disappointing" 18.75 MB/s is actually exactly what you're paying for (150 ÷ 8 = 18.75). The real crime is making us do math while we're just trying to download updates for games we never play.
