OK, non-boomer. I was just curious about where all the cord-cutters are getting their internet. I thought cable was pretty ubiquitous (for internet) in the urbs.

I think he was clearly using "cable" to only mean the box on your TV, not the whole package. I'm not sure I've ever heard someone refer to Comcast internet as "cable", but I'm only a bit older than SamuelMcF.

As for where cord-cutters get internet, I would say it depends. In much of the country high-speed internet is a monopoly or close to it. Fortunately I live in a place where you can get the best ISP in the country (Sonic, based out of Santa Rosa). Depending on one's willingness to do the cancellation dance they may have cable from a bundle and never use it, but even with that I think you're better off saying "forget it" and going internet only.
