Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn’t? I understand bandwidth limits, but how can home internet get away with giving users all the data they can use, but cell phone providers can’t?

    I said “home internet hasn’t had data caps for a couple of decades, well except maybe in that one country where people have no consumer rights and everyone gets fucked up the arse for money just for existing”. I’m paraphrasing here.

    You said - “Oh yeah, let me prove you right!”

    I’m not sure where you’re going with this

      Ok, I missed the sarcasm and allusion to the US as the country you were talking about. That’s fair.

      I assumed the OP was asking the question for the US. Which of course, is the thing people in my country do. Assume everything is about us ;)

          Closer to 96/95% now ;) But yeah, your point stands. What’s even worse about this, is I’m working on a dual citizenship with Portugal, so I should have had more self-awareness than I showed ;)
