It also makes no sense with the bandwidth you’re given.
For example, if you have a 1 Gb/s connection, that’s 0.125 GB/second, which comes out to about 320 TB/month if you fully use that bandwidth. Giving you a pipe that can download 320 TB but then limiting it to, say, 1 TB/month makes no goddamned sense whatsoever. You’re giving people a sports car and telling them they can’t drive over 15 mph.

I think it’s more like giving people a sports car and then only giving them 5 liters (or ~1 gallon) of gas to actually drive it.
