Of course, this whole thing is also overlooking the absurdity of a 1 TB monthly data cap on a service offering up to 1000 Mbps bandwidth.
Yes, hours. That cap cannot sustain the advertised speed for even one full day before hitting overage charges.
Needless to say, we went with a different service provider. We are fortunate here to have an option (alas, still a cable company) that has no data cap, but not everyone is so lucky.

Think of all the "cloud" kind of things you could enable if you could use that bandwidth. Only we can't.
Think backups of your entire disk etc... massive p2p cluster filesystems stuff like that. All not possible cause of these data caps.
