After 16 years of living in my city, they will finally have city-wide fiber internet. I’m pretty stoked because the fastest internet I could possibly have is a WISP at 50gbps down and 10gbps up. Now I will finally have gigabit but it’s through the city, and I’m wondering if they will be more strict on illegal content download given a possible VPN leak. I know this is highly subjective but I want to understand all the possibilities what could happen.

You probably meant 50mbps down and 10mbps up

For real. If OP is complaining about 50Gbps down, it’s because they’re a time traveler from 2050 and their storage drives start at 5 exabytes.

My ISP offers 25 Gbit/s up and down for 64.75 CHF per month. Currently I’m just too cheap to get hardware for it, so I’m on the 1 Gbit/s plan for the same price.

So maybe a bit sooner than 2050.

I never said it’s impossible. I said it’s odd that OP would be complaining about those speeds, as if 50Gbps is slow.
