[apple-iphone] Re: Throttling

 

So with all this talk about the LIMITED Unlimited plan I decided to check my data usage on the bill and I found something rather odd.

It seems that from Dec 30 to Jan 1 at roughly 1130 hours my phone likes to send a TON of data.

See picture here :

(in-case link gets deleted or mods kill it)
20MB on the 30th
17MB on the 31st and
4MB on the 1st

Now I know exactly where my phone was at those times and I know exactly what I was doing with it at those times. I was either asleep or watching the new years TV shows with my phone sitting on the coffee table. Anyone else seeing this kind of activity on their bills?

I bring this up here because if the Empire is going to throttle our usage because we use too much data then shouldn't we know exactly what our phones are doing? Is the Empire making them phone home with bogus data packets to trump our usage to make us switch? Now I know they cant report exactly what kind of data is being transferred but something is fishy here.

I'm running the fallowing:
IP4
iOS 5.01 (jailbroken)
For the record, phone is a brand new install of iOS v.5.01 and I have yet to install any apps on it other then a couple of game apps.
