ah yes, faster speeds so we can run out of the 1.2 TB / month quota faster

data caps on fiber should be illegal

who even gets their 1.2 Gbps plan when you can run out of data for the whole month in a bit over 2 hours?

Data caps on any fixed location internet service should be illegal.

Overselling then blocking customers from being able to use what they paid for is fraud.
