Charter Cable Capping Usage Nationwide This Month

An anonymous reader writes with this snippet from DSL Reports, with possible bad news for Charter customers who live outside the test areas for the bandwidth caps the company's been playing with: "Yesterday we cited an anonymous insider at Charter who informed us that the company would very soon be implementing new caps. Today, Charter's Eric Ketzer confirmed the plans, and informed us that Charter's new, $140 60Mbps tier will not have any limitations. Speeds of 15Mbps or slower will have a 100GB monthly cap, while 15-25Mbps speeds will have a 250GB monthly cap. 'In order to continue providing the best possible experience for our Internet customers, later this month we will be updating our Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) to establish monthly residential bandwidth consumption thresholds,' Ketzer confirms. 'More than 99% of our customers will not be affected by our updated policy, as they consume far less bandwidth than the threshold allows,' he says." But if they're lucky, customers will be able to hit that cap quickly.

I'm a software developer,

Ah, so you are one of the people buying a residential service to run a business over and complaining how it doesn't fit your needs. Got it. Now go buy an unlimited service that has "business" in the name of the service and tell me how that works for you.

God damn you are stupid.

Why, because your "logic" couldn't convince anyone you are right? Perhaps you should try defending your statements, rather than just attacking all the people that successfully show that they are wrong.
