Well it's finally happened. Comcast has announced that caps on broadband data usage will go into effect for all of its users starting October 1st. Most media outlets aren't really paying attention to this and a lot of the comments I'm seeing are saying that 250gb/month is fair and that only people that "abuse" their internet connection should be worried. Go ahead and believe whatever you want there sunshine but this is the worst possible thing that could happen to the Internet and the entire industry built around it.
Do you seriously think that Comcast will leave that cap at 250gb? The next time they grossly oversell their service and don't want to cough up the cash to expand they'll just lower the cap again. And don't forget that this means you are getting LESS service from Comcast with this change with NO REDUCTION in the cost for that service.
Every other ISP will follow Comcast's lead and institute these caps now so EVERYONE will eventually be effected by this.
I guess I'll have to switch to Verizon DSL but that feels like offering to suck Mussolini's cock so I don't have to be fucked in the ass by Hitler.
