Doesn’t work does it? Just like it doesn’t work for broadband providers to provide 1,000 times the level of service for the price of what was expected to be 1x… You consumer a lot more than the next guy, you pay a lot more. As more consumers use more, providers with what you call ‘caps’ – which in reality are not caps at all, they are allowances – will (and have) raised their monthly user allowances. Allowances are about curtailing excessive behavior. Not gouging users or stifling innovation.

Quit treating broadband and the Internet like its an entitlement (you must live in California…).

Get a frickin clue Stacey. Your constant liberalism on this topic is getting REALLY tiresome.
