WHY

is this practice (UBB) legal???

1. The maximum RATE of TRANSFER on a "speed package" purchased from an ISP IS the DATA CAP.

2. IF ISPs need to improve infrastructure in the fight against congestion, "data hogs" and "heavy users" then, they could just raise the flat-rate fee by so many dollars. Where does UBB fit into this equation necessarily??

3. Data is not a "perishable commodity". We transfer data and in no way consume it. Data does not need to be metered or rationed. Bandwidth, on the hand, CAN BE considered a "perishable commodity" and it IS metered and rationed ("speed packages").

Solution : ISPs need to stick to what they've been doing well for so long...sell SPEED PACKAGES W/O DATA VOLUME LIMITS.

correct, remember the companys who built the bill. Its the ones with the caps already, AT&T, Comcast come to mind, did verizon have a say in it, NO, in fact they dont even want it. Timewarner yes they had a say and look there about to put caps.., Cox, suddenlink, centrylink, time will tell if they will, it will trickle down

but thankfully we have a few company that are willing to take this court and the FCC, as a american I dont believe the FCC should have this kind of power and in fact maybe a new agenice should be in place, But this one has way more work than you can shake a stick at..
