With Comcast, faster doesn’t mean better
Posted in: Uncategorized
Comcast’s amusing new “Rabbit” TV spot from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners gets a very clear point across: Comcast is fast. When its employees aren’t purposely interfering with your Internet file sharing, that is. Or falling asleep on the job. And don’t bother complaining, because they’ll either call you names or conscript an army of bored seat-fillers to keep you out of FCC net neutrality meetings. But that doesn’t mean the spot is bad, exactly. It looks like H.R. Geiger’s reinterpretation of Falkor from The Neverending Story, but that makes it a perfect symbol for Comcast: ugly, cumbersome and careless.
