Telecomes fighting over unlimited data
For decades now, U.S. wireless carriers have sold consumers “unlimited data” plans that actually have all manner of sometimes hidden throttling, caps, download limits, and restrictions. And every few years a regulator comes out with a wrist slap against wireless carriers for misleading consumers, for whatever good it does.
In the interim, telecom providers are even bickering about the definition of “unlimited” between themselves.
What an absolute mess. I’ve always despised the label of unlimited. Would it kill a company to be honest?
