Why are these limits imposed on consumers and not the major players allowing consumers to waste data like that?
Like instagram does not need databases of 8MB images for everyones collage. Youtube doesn't need 4k even now for some dweeb doing a tech review.
If they forcefully throttled entities, which then trickled down to consumers, the ISPs wouldn't have to extort consumers to help pay for everyone else's selfish vanity.
- wongarsu 6y agoOr what if ISPs just charged what it takes to deliver internet without artificial limits, and then delivered just that? It's not like we don't know how to transfer vast amounts of data, or like we didn't predict the rise in traffic. I'm not necessarily against having a cheaper plan with a traffic cap, and a more expensive plan that's unlimited. But just throttling data providers isn't the solution
