Internet cap? Not if I can help it…

Posted by Tony On April - 14 - 2009

Internet is under attack, I really can’t understand why this is being done, unless it is because TW is a money hungry, badly managed company…

Interestingly enough this article says that TW changed their ideas after “testing” it out and they now offer a very reasonable $150/month plan that allows you unlimited use of the internet… Yeah, right! This is all a bunch of BS and just TW’s way to screw consumers over and profit more. Bandwidth should be getting cheaper, not more expensive. The equipment is cheaper, the wires are laid, so why this backwards thinking? Some people have mentioned that its probably related to all the videos being streamed online and how this is threatening their cable internet division… Also, they will offer things on their website that are bandwidth free… Monopoly anyone?

The sad thing about all this is that unless people start trying to do something about it, like calling their congressmen and threatening to switch providors, stuff like this will just go on. So, give your congressmen a call, or send them a email and let them know that this is unacceptable.
