That goes for any so-called gig speed service. Use a third-party wifi router if you can. I can get about 500 Mbit/sec downstream on my laptop from a fairly new LinkSys three-antenna model. That's pretty good, but not literally gig speed. Otherwise I use wired networking everywhere I can.
Am surprised OF decided to take the pill rather than go crypto. But, to your question... pressure was brought-to-bear by gov't regulatory agencies against all the credit card companies and payment processors. Anyone who tried to get into this space today would face the same problem.
