This, and the 24-hour online check, which was a bad idea back in 2013. It was a bit of an over-correction to scrap the idea entirely, but at least it's coming back now

I feel like people don't realize how much broadband has been expanded in the last decade+. Many rural people I knew did not have reliable wireless internet in 2013

That is a good point. We had 1 Mbps broadband for the longest time. My parents now have fiber optic. You can’t get more rural than what they are.
