Yea, welcome to Canada Mate

Just till recently Rogers had some fairly messed up caps and overage charges... now they have unlimited within acceptable use but acceptable use is inadequately described...

I have a 400GB cap and i rarely push 100 GB (i currently have 128.33 GB and half way), but im downloading a lot of junk (1TB worth almost)

Last 2 months: Feb: 121.10 GB March: 354.09 GB

April is to be projected at about 300 GB

Shared by 2 people one person literally sits on youtube all day...

Do i agree with 10GB cap? no, do i think it is as bad as you say? Nope... CSS takes 30kbs MP maybe 50-80. In todays age i think 50/60gb should be bare min for anything that can download faster than 150kb/s.

The image below is a few years old And how you guys should of approached it.

Oh one more little thing, afaik no country has the right to access the internet w/o limitations

There is the possibility of extortion but i dont know your laws...

Plus dont count on the gov to do anything... they get money from them far more than you guys, so basically they get more money out of it too...

Why do you think the people in Brazil are so upset? But here's the thing... Out of all the ISPs in Brazil, until now, only two had limited internet. All others offered unlimited connections. The rise of Netflix and YouTube drove a good portion of their cable TV users to the internet and they declared war on these services but that's a fight they couldn't win. Until a ISP called VIVO bought GVT (the best one in the market until then) and immediately declared that they would impose limits. The other companies saw in the limitation the answer to their "issue" with Netflix and cable services so they joined the bandwagon. You think you have it bad in Canada with limits? Your internet has quality and fair price, even if you disagree. The limits they will be working with are even lower than Canada's and as usual with anything in Brazil, the prices will be higher than what you pay in Canada. That's the part that is most upsetting everyone. The only caps that will manage to handle all the data consumed by most users in a month are REALLY expensive. The ones everyone can afford are not nearly enough to last half a month. The current unlimited connection by itself isn't what you can call cheap, but it allows us to do everything we need. But not without constant slow downs and random connection loses. With a limit it will only become a lot worse.

Honestly? Since it seems we'll have to bear with a castrated internet connection, I wish I had yours. 'Cause trust me... you don't want what we'll be getting. You'd wish you were back with yours.
