Depends on how big is the data cap. Sure, if your package is 10GB, it's fine, but what if the data cap was 250 MB and you could surpass it with a "Netflix" pack

- mcv 9y agoAssuming that package is cheaper and the people who choose it are only interested in Netflix anyway, it's fine. What matters to me is that paying customers are treated as customers, and that we get to choose what we want, rather than ISPs secretly throttling stuff behind the scenes in order to coerce extra money out of Google and Netflix. I don't want to be ammo in their trade war.

I don't see Mastodon in the "social networks" plan. So my options are: 1) pay more for "general" bandwidth, 2) use Twitter instead. This is the choice that customers will have to make when evaluating new internet services and it's not good for anyone trying to compete with Google/Facebook/Microsoft.
