Is it entitled to want to keep up with society, when I pay $10/GB for bandwidth?

  Why on earth are you paying $10/GB for bandwidth?

    Mobile data plans can be very expensive, especially if they're sold by a provider with a lock on a particular user's region.

    Presumably because that is the price that their provider sells it for. Most people do not have a choice of ISP, and cannot negotiate the terms of their service.

      ...which is why I'm curious to know who they are getting their service from. A price point like that ought to be named and shamed if users have no other option.

        Ice.net. And I misremembered the cost; it's actually "only" $5/GB.
