Even fairly restrictive data caps are in the range of 6 Tb per month. P2P at a mere 100 Mb works out to 1 TiB per 24 hours.

Hypothetically my ISP will sell me unmetered 10 Gb service but I wonder if they would actually make good on their word ...

I have a 1.2TB cap before you start getting charged extra, so you might need to recalibrate your restrictive level.

    • ATT once told me if I don't pay for their TV service then my home gigabit fiber would have a 1TB cap. They had an agreement with the apartment building so I had no other choice of provider.
