Bandwidth caps should be consider illegal because they are only internet overcharging schemes for cable and phone companies providing internet services.
We need to stand up for our internet freedom!
Since 2008 Comcast has introduced a 250GB bandwidth cap for its internet services. Because of new technologies and internet services be introduced to the end-users these caps are unreasonable. A lot of people could exceed the 250GB just by using services like netflix, Itunes podcasts, and tivo.
As far as I know Comcast's policy is that the first time you exceed the 250GB they would contact you and if you do it again in 6 months (I believe this is right) they would terminate your service and prevent you from activating a new service for 1 year. This sucks for many users because they may not have another internet provider in their area.
This is way these caps should be illegal for all cable and phone providers. They are just trying to get more money out of their customers.
