Comcast’s 1.2 TB data cap seems like a ton of data—until you factor in remote work 📦

Just another money grab for Comcast. Plain and simple.

When you consider I average around 10-15tb a month (streaming, plex server, usenet downloads, gaming, remote work) on AT&T GigaFiber (no cap, 1000up/down), 1.2tb is nothing.

>10-15tb How? I run a Plex server that serves five different people, in addition to torrenting. It barely cracks 1TB/mo.

I've got over 50 people using my plex, which has a storage array of 32tb that has revolving content of movies and TV shows. Additionally, most of the movies I keep are 4k. The entire thing is automated using Sonarr and Radarr, feeding into SABNZBD. It's pretty easy.

One thing I hated from Trump's administration is that POS Ajit Pai that gave more power to these fuckers.

Yeah, I don't think hating Ajit Pai is remotely controversial, no matter how you think of anyone else

Why are their caps, I live in a place where if they did that there would be killing in the street. No one wants a cap on how much water they use, or TV they can view why are people accepting of all this and not protesting this instead of BLM shit
