Worms and spam

Part of the problem is the burden that ISP's will have. Getting a remote computer to try and max your inbound 5 megs is VERY difficult. However, a botted computer that is pooled into a remotely controlled spam, ddos, whatever botnet will easily run a 2 meg outbound to its limits for as long as negligence allows.

Using your full download capacity nonstop: Tough
Using you upload bc of bot,p2p,hosting: Easy

Again coming back to commercial lines, a business that is paying much more for a top quality connection is much more likely to notice un-authorized activity that is cutting into their pricey bandwidth, whereas the Jones will basically notice that the internet either works or does not.
