I'm in mixed minds about this.
For as long as I remember, Australian linux users have been able to download isos from their ISPs own mirrors, without it counting against their cap. Which makes total sense, because it's internal to the ISPs network, so it costs them zero in peering fees.
It's hard to argue that this is a bad idea.
Now Shaw do the same thing, and it's .. awkward. It smells anticompetitive & self-serving. But it's essentially the same thing.
