(and even 4G actually) it's much more stable.

I have never had a checkbook, paid for TV service, a cell phone bill (work provided cell phone), or a landline.
I'm constantly going over data limits for internet, partially because I work from home, partially because I've never paid for TV so everything is streaming.
Someday I hope to pay for a cell phone, because I hope to be self-employed. I had a government issued pager when I was 16 and working as an intern, and as such, have never personally paid for the inconvenience of being accessible to others. I make myself available here as a community service.
