Maybe they can crack down on high text message users next... (Score: 1) by entropy@pipedot.org on 2015-09-04 22:28 (#KFR9) Data limits on cellular phones is a fantasy just like per-TXT and per-MMS charges were. They are holding onto it, and people hate it...but unlimited data is what customers demand. Idiocy like some guy using 2TB is not going to dissuade me from the obvious point that they whine about people using over 2GB and want to charge incredibly high rates per GB.

Just wow. Re: Maybe they can crack down on high text message users next... (Score: 1) by evilviper@pipedot.org on 2015-09-05 09:52 (#KGT0) Yes, 2TB on mobile. John Legere should send the guy a cake or something as a "Thank You" present, because that one single extreme case makes him able to claim he's not the bad guy here. For all we know, the other 2,999 users he plans to ban might only be using 8GB of data every month. He didn't bother to get into specifics about the rest of them. And even if they are all far over the limits, these are just the ones he's "starting with", so sooner or later, he'll get to those users, too.
