This is definitely not typical in Europe. Typically you'll get a bandwidth cap and have to pay per gigabyte above that. For home use this is not the norm.
- cpach 7y agoIMHO it’s kinda hard to generalise about the whole of Europe as if all European countries are alike. Where I live (Sweden) ADSL and fiber for home use are generally not capped, AFAIK. Obviously that is not true for all European countries.
- krageon 7y agoYou are correct of course, I am talking about the rich parts of Europe. The more to the east (and in some cases the south) you go, the worse the situation can be. Edit: Though reading this again, I was mostly talking about server usage - in which case I don't know of any country that has unmetered bandwidth in practice (this means no FUP either, which is just a fancy way of saying "there is a cap but we can change it whenever we feel like it") in the EU and I have an above average familiarity with the space.
