Re: These are the kind of caps...

said by bojean8:

i saw people account with 4000gb of download per month and ~90gb of upload in quebec, canada
A 10Mb connection downloading at its advertised speed would fall about 750GB short of 4TB in a one-month period...

Not until you see something like this that you understand WHY they want to put CAPS.
I would understand this argument if ISPs were putting caps on users who were actually abusing the service. Downloading 100GB in a month on a 10Mb connection is not abuse. It's a way for lazy ISPs to pull in more money without having to expand the capacity of their network.

Not to mention the fact that ISPs have a tendency to hide what their caps truly are. This information should be readily available to users when choosing a service provider.
