• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Why Data Caps Suck

    Let me point out what's wrong with the video; The big issue is that he is not factoring in the cost of internet drains that the ISP's must incur to provide service. Having redundant connections with teir-1 peers like Level3, XO, etc.. etc.. is not cheap. A friend of mine that used to work...
