Comcast advertising “10G” in hopes to confuse consumers to accept slower speeds::Comcast says Xfinity offers 10G home internet, but the term “10G” is hazy and potentially misleading—especially because it has no relation to 5G for cell phones.

How is it intentionally confusing?
Providers have been using G for speeds for a long time. Just because the media became obsessed with 5G for some reason, which uses G for Gen, doesn’t mean the other use of G became intentionally confusing.
And nobody, including myself will know what it means without searching. The actual speed is 10G. As in 10gbps.
I’ve beenbkinda tracking this 10g branding for a while. The link speed isn’t actually 10g and they say it’s the 10th generation of their service.
