said by davidc502 I don't know that the sky is falling for Comcast customers. I believe Comcast will be realistic about what 95% of their customers use, and come up with a realistic data cap.
If you don't use much internet, and the cap doesn't affect you, there's really no reason to leave, unless you're standing for a principle.

Considering years ago when usage caps first came into existence and the claims back then, yeah I wouldn't believe Comcast would be very realistic about their claims.
They made it a point of saying 90% of people used less than 10GB per month. They provided absolutely no data to back up such a ridiculous claim. Including the region used, how they selected the individuals, how many were used for the statistical analysis, etc.
In a era where are homes are heavily connected that 90% number is impossible to swallow without clarification. My family uses more than 5GB of data on their phones just playing around doing god knows what by mid-month. I had to literally sit them down and explain to them why the bill was ridiculous and so too was their usage. People will just get used to paying more like a water, gas, or electric bill and that's exactly what ISP's want in general. They know you wont bother looking into things deeper and will just accept it as if it's normal.
Meanwhile billions more from overcharges will come flooding into investors pockets.
