It's the overly vague handwaviness and arbitrary enforcement that people are upset about.
This is like the all-you-can-eat buffet that changes the rules when a football team shows up.

But the tech community seems to only accept the solution wherein unlimited service is provided, ignoring the other (IMO much better) solution wherein non-unlimited service is advertised as non-unlimited, and the non-unlimitedness is provided in a sane manner with usage-based billing rather than vague rules. It's like the all-you-can-eat buffet that changes the rules when a football team shows up, but also everybody gets upset any time the buffet thinks about changing to an a la carte model.
