Andy from SingleHop here. Thought I'd "hop" in to clear some things up.
Everyone was correct in saying that this was an honest mistake, and that the speed test download files were in fact generated with dd and an input file of /dev/zero. We've since corrected this by generating new files using /dev/urandom, and the results are more accurate now.
We were by no means trying to "trick" or "deceive" any customers, or anyone at all. I am personally happy to see the community bring this to light so we could tackle it.
