That is interesting; I was aware of day/night variable rates but not punitive usage caps. I suspect that even in places that have them, the punitive caps 2-3 orders of magnitude higher than the original per-watt usage rate like they are with text message caps. Perhaps it is just me, but I have heard many instances of people getting charged 10x as much as their base plan for data overages, and I've never heard someone complain about power overages (though I have heard people complain about getting a higher bill than they original expected because they were loose with their power usage across the whole month).
