I think you seriously unterestimate the amount of data society uses to function. If e.g. Australia would suddenly go to only 1% of it's throughput it would cause economic chaos and likely cause hyperinflation amongst many things. Too many things rely on data essentially being free (the development of data traffic prices over the last 4 decades is absolutely mind blowing), in fact even if data throughput prices would stop dropping that would likely have significant economic impact as business plans rely on those projections.
