I know about addiction. I used to smoke. I managed to kick the addiction.
I used to have cable--a long, long time ago. I managed to deal with cutting the cord when I felt it was no longer serving my needs for a price that could be justified.
I still miss smoking on occasion. There are shows on cable TV I sometimes regret not being able to watch.
Likewise with mobile data. It would be
nice, but, while there are many, many things in life that are necessities, being wired to the 'net 24x7 isn't one of them. Not for me. Not for the vast majority of people.
Your argument, Cobra, is a good one for never signing-up for data in the first place. I've been vaguely considering it. Maybe getting my employer to underwrite it. I think you just convinced me to drop the idea entirely.
