In the real world, though, you won't be getting 247 such requests per hour. And that's the crux of the issue: quantity vs quality.
- naturalauction 6y agoI mean I'd assume it would work similar to pay as you go data, in that you just get charged in the background. Not sure how you'd deal with sites trying to bill their users a ton without the users finding out though - maybe they need to click a button to continue every certain number of requests or amount of data used.
- esperent 6y agoI don't see such requests, no. But they happen every time I turn on the water or anything electrical. They are completely seamless and I get feedback at the end of every month whereby I can think, hmm, I should be more careful to turn off the AC when I'm going out. But on a daily basis I don't have to think about it much. This is what I mean by seamless. If you're reading 247 different sources of information in an hour, unless you're doing some kind of heavy research, you're probably overloading your brain in any case. How many blog articles can you read in an hour? Less than ten, probably more like 5, if they're actually worth reading.
