Sadly, you have a good point about the many many users who can barely figure out how to use their computers... such users likely won't care and will continue bumbling through the internets.
Others might bump into the caps and be forced to subscribe to a pricier level of service, even if they don't need the speed - but they'll be forced into it because of a lesser restriction on usage - only to find that they now have faster service, and with that, wish to use it more, thus going back to bumping into the next cap and having to get an even faster level, only to continue this vicious cycle of lunacy.
Such a cycle will eventually push enough people into their most expensive level(s) at which point it might register in the brains of some people that they feel ripped off enough to complain about it. At this stage, there might be a slim chance of such occurrences to lead to a larger realization that the truth of the matter is that everyone has been scammed.
If I were you, I'd write/call/fax/email every media outlet in your area.
Explain that this is a scam because it will force unsuspecting customers to pay for levels of service which they may not need, AND that the provider probably can't even deliver the highest levels to all locations... If one picks it up and reports it halfway right, others might follow suit. |
