You have data caps on your broadband connections in the US? Does your phones have rotary dials too?

$190 bucks a month for a limitless connection is insane. I'm too cheap to pay 30€ a month for unlimited fibre connection so I use 4G router which gives me around 40Mbps unlimited connection and it costs me 10€ a month.

I pay double what I did in the city for half the speed, but thank fuck I've got no data caps or I'd not have moved here, and I've made a decent Internet plan a hard requirement on ever moving

The 6 TB of torrents I've uploaded in the last month appreciate it, I'm sure
