Comcast
Definition
Comcast Corporation is an American multinational telecommunications conglomerate and the largest home internet provider in the United States, operating under the Xfinity brand for cable television, broadband internet, and voice services.
Informally, 'Comcast' often serves as a shorthand for frustrating customer service experiences, frequent service outages, or unexpectedly high billing in tech-savvy households.
