If you really want something unlimited, go with the service that explicitly states that the service is unlimited, like Teksavvy's unlimited dsl, albeit throttled.
You can't find an officially unlimited cap and unthrottled residential internet connection in Ontario. So don't bother. Suck it up. This is the reality. |

Until Bell decides next week that they're imposing caps on their partners...but forget to inform them of their decision until a flood of calls come in asking if there's a cap on the service.
Gentlemen. We're screwed. The hey days of internet are now over and in the next few years residential participation will probably take a massive decline as people shed a service they feel is obtrusive, unreliable and overpriced. |

You are living in a fantasy world if you think that this throttling affects ordinary users, or that ordinary users would care enough about this to even google the term "throttling". To suggest that people will leave the internet because they can't suck down unlimited bandwidth is just complete fantasyland.
Ah, but you also think that bandwidth is free, so that explains the fantasyland.
