Verizon Makes It Easy To Go Over Your Data Cap

Posted by Soulskill on from the as-it-was-as-it-ever-shall-be dept.

jfruhlinger writes "Verizon Wireless has revamped its video service; many Android phones can now stream full episodes from a number of current TV shows. You can even choose to just buy access for a day if you don't see yourself using the service often. Sounds great, right? Well, except for the part where all of Verizon's current smartphone plans have data caps — and the new service makes it awfully easy to go over them and incur overage charges."

    This is correct. We banned automatic weapons in 1996 and look at us now: data limits on all our broadband plans. I hope this can be a lesson to the rest of the world.
