Bandwidth exempt services only end up with a tiered internet, which is an absolutely horrible thing.

univbee posted:How is someone expected to keep up with even software and OS updates with that little bandwidth? Windows 7 SP1 64-bit will probably be in the neighborhood of 850-900 megs just on its own. And if you don't update, you can find yourself compromised by a spam bot, which Bell will blame you for because you should have been updated, but you can't update without going ove $22 a month for internet access that I would be pissed about on my loving phone. I feel bad for Canadians.

I've got lots of raw data that says the telcos are nowhere near saturation in their bandwidth usage and this is a naked money grab because they have the CTCC in their pocket, but I can't show it to you

Nitr0 posted:Right, because then instead of someone downloading 20GB @ 20Mb/s in 2.2 hours they download at 10Mb/s in 4.5 hours. How don't caps relieve congestion? If you are limited to the amount of data you can pass then you are not on the network as often. The faster they get you on and off the more speed they have to give to someone else. But data caps don't really affect mb/sec speeds so I don't get what your point is with this whole line of thought. People aren't bitching that they're getting 10mbit/sec connections instead of 20mbit/sec, they're bitching that they're getting less use out of the connection that they're paying for because their bandwidth limits are going down when the average usage is going up!

I don't know why you Canadians are complaining about your dearth of home grown TV shows, you have How It's Made!
