Re: [apple-iphone] AT&T eases up on throttling

Why punish the whole for the few? Telcos know who abuses unlimited. Punish them.

The issue is congestion and abuse. Cellular is very much a finite resource. You can run fibre to the home, telco buys bandwidth pipes and go for it, but while fibre joins the cell towers, congestion is very much an issue wirelessly. The purpose of unlimited is no worries, no need to check usage, just use it. But some abuse it. On the run, sweet, I'll download the internet cos I can.

Unfortunately the few spoil it for the many. If everyone used unlimited cellular for what it is, there would be no issue. Use it don't abuse it

No I don't have a copy of the AT&T contract anymore. I'm with VZ now. I have never felt throttling was fair because we all pay the same amount that we signed up to pay every month. When the cell company throttles, shouldn't we pay less during that time? Of course cell companies won't go for it.

Alice, where does it say they will provide unthrottled service? They don't even guarantee the speed of service.

I'll bet you a dollar to a stale donut you don't even have a copy if the contract.

Still not good. We pay for non-throttled service, so we should get it.
