Who the fuck cares about 10Gbit/s? With data caps, there is nothing I am downloading on a mobile device that is perceptibly faster than downloading it at 1/1000 of that speed
Imagine having data caps in 2024
And this a problem only in the monopolistic culture of the US. I can’t name a single EU State with broadband data cap.
Uhh… Germany would like to have a word
Most carriers do offer some uncapped plan, I think, but it’s expensive and not the default
I am talking about landline providers.
Ah. Well the first comment in this chain talked about mobile devices, so I was assuming we were talking about mobile data plans
This shit started with 3g. None of the carriers were even close to supporting 3g, which was designed to support 100mbps.
Tmo and vzw had a modest improvement from 2g even though it was still slow as shit but AT&T simple did nothing and started calling theirs 3g.
One hundred millibits per second? That means it takes ten whole seconds to send a single bit! That’s outrageous.
Hey, that is still considered “high-speed” here in Germany!
