Yep, I have a friend who pays $150/month for 50mbit/s satellite with a 20G data cap. He makes heavy use of the unmetered time from 12am-4am though. And yea, I did some look ups before about this issue and it's ridiculous the cap structure some of these providers have, like this bit from Wild Blue:
> After exceeding either of the usage thresholds, which vary by service package, we may significantly slow and/or restrict your service, or certain uses of your service. Your full service will be restored when your data usage in the prior 30 days falls below 70% for both usage thresholds.
So, if you go over, then for the next 30 days you're throttled UNTIL your volume stays under 70% of your cap over a 30 day period... Like, how is it even legal to sell one thing, but punish for using more than 70% of it sometimes
