Another funny thing is here biggest and semi government ISP provider promoting fiberoptic connections saying it gives you amazing 150mbps speed. True, but what's the point of that when you have only about 40GB data for a month to use. ;

We have the same hypocrite way of advertising the service here. Very expensive. With lockdown we're not having load shedding with electricity for now, but once the lockdown comes to an end in May, we will have load shedding once more. And then the fun and games will start. South Africa's electricity supply is in huge problems as the power stations have been neglected with no maintenance of maintenance using cheap products that weren't designed for the stations creating enormous damage. They could do some basic maintenance during the lock down but were unable to import the huge equipment needed for major maintenance that is needed. People are already beginning to groan about future hardship when the lockdown is lifted.
