The Internet and Cable companies here in Canada are already trying to circumvent the issue and bring back the sheep by capping regular internet plans in the same way you see with data plans on phones--Most companies allot 100gb (and then you pay huge sums if you go over) which isn't very much in today's world, so it's gotten to the point where I had to cancel my netflix (its inferior in Canada anyways) because by watching it regularly, I far exceeded my internet cap. It's gotten to the point where excessive streaming/downloading for entertainment is about on par with traditional cable in terms of costs.
- CountHackulus 15y agoInstead of cancelling Netflix, why not stick it to the people giving you prohibitive caps and switch to an independent 3rd party ISP. I switched from Rogers to Teksavvy (and later Teksavvy Cable) and have loved every second of it. The best part is that the customer service and tech support people don't treat you like an idiot and don't just read their script and transfer you around when you say something not on their script. (Not bitter.)
