This. As much as I want to hate Comcast, and do to some degree, I have a really hard time calling this unfair. I consider myself a very heavy internet user and I usually top out around 750GB a month.
A 1TB cap feels reasonable.
- notheguyouthink 8y agoI mean, increasing what's given for the same price doesn't equate to nobility or generosity or anything. Even the most evil dictator wants to keep their people from rioting. If anything, Comcast's past behaviors warrants not giving them the benefit of doubt. edit: I guess a downvote indicates that I'm wrong. The lowering of price is definitely due to the overwhelming generosity of Comcast. /s
- finnthehuman 8y agoWhen I buy an X Mbps link from anyone other than a handful of residential ISPs, I get to saturate it as much or as little I like. Data caps only exist in the context of an ISP covering their ass for overselling. "Fair" and "reasonable" are just a matter of perspective, one I can never sign onto when they're the fine print on misleadingly marketed product.
