| stop using the word unlimited I think people would be having much less of a problem with this if the ISP's would stop advertising UNLIMITED usage. Why not just be up front and say what the caps are, then we can decide which ISP we can live with.
I agree that "bandwidth hogs" put a burden on everybody else... but if you are an ISP and you are advertising "unlimited" then these "bandwidth hogs" aren't doing anything wrong. They aren't breaking any rules. If these rules were outlined, then the problem would diminish.
So... stop advertising "UNLIMITED". Be honest already. |

I do not believe many use "UNLIMITED usage" ads. most say UNLIMITED access which means the network is available for use anytime you want to use it.

| I know what they are talking about, but most people wouldn't. The government makes car dealerships advertise the APR for a reason... because the interest rate doesn't tell the whole story and is very deceptive. Why should cable companies be able to use the word "unlimited" when they know they are just trying to pull the wool over consumer's eyes? |
