There's Still No Evidence That Metered Billing Is Necessary > In one sentence.

said by AnonDOG :

The only people who fear metered billing are people who believe their bill will go up with metered billing.

In one paragraph:

This ISP has 1342 subscribers on PPPoE.

Last month they used : 5,454,239,899,513 bytes
The average user used: 4,064,262,220 bytes
The usage standard deviation was: 9,941,760,033

When the standard deviation is twice the average there are some huge anomalies (read "really big pigs").

USERS BELOW AVERAGE: 1019
USERS ABOVE AVERAGE: 322

So, as I said, the only people who fear metered billing are those who use fifty times the average...
