Germany would disagree with you. They consider certain breeds dangerous enough that they’re heavily regulated if not banned outright. They also require every dog to be registered and taxed. They’re a bit crazy with this stuff but the idea is to encourage responsible ownership.

A friend told me that they can even do welfare checks to ensure an owner can adequately care for their pet.

I might have disagreed with this stuff in the past, but given how irresponsible so many people are I’ve changed my mind on these kinds of policies.

Eh the issue is you need to KNOW it’s a criminal and not just assume in the moment. What if someone thought it was their car or was told to put something in someone else’s? It’s rare, but there is guaranteed to be a case like that. I just think you should record and CT should up the penalties big time

I had frontier for two days before I had what was going to be a two day outage. Mind you I never experienced one with Comcast that wasn’t related to a power outage so this hit my family hard. No TV or internet for two days?! Frontier said they couldn’t have someone come out earlier so my wife and I resigned with Comcast for their fastest internet package and haven’t looked back.

I had intermittent, very brief (<5 min) outages on a relatively frequent basis on fiber for a while (although they were almost always between 2 and 5am), but they did some sort of neighborhood-sized switch upgrade which totally solved the problem. Since then we've been pretty much consistently up.
