There are several problems transplanting that billing model to
Internet service. The first you've already noticed - marketing

Not quite. Look at mobile data plans. A very few are unlimited, most

I don't know of a single data plan that's unlimited. they all have
either 5 gig or lower transfer caps. That's not unlimited no matter
