It won't because usually your options are 50 Mbit line (maybe 100 if you're really lucky) or a 1Gb line for the same price.

I'd happily take the arbitration clause for 10x and probably 20x the speedup.

Beyond that, your other options will also usually include arbitration clauses. If it's a deal-breaker for choosing Google, it'll be a deal-breaker for choosing anyone else.

That's a fair point. As the article's title points out, Comcast does the same.
