There is a highlight point that many internet services are indeed asymmetrical. My Comcast service is 180/20 Mbps, down/up respectively. Even if you get Comcast's new gigabit service, you get 940 down, and 40 up. And many home ISPs prohibit you from serving a website at home, according to their terms of service.

Comcast has symmetrical 2gbps fiber.

The 940/40 is DOCSIS 3.1

The situation with uploads on home connections is better than it was a few years ago though.
