Interesting info. Cox in Mesa is limiting me to 1tb.

This is why Cox has now imposed a 1.5tb bandwidth cap on users. They
know everyone is cutting off their overpriced video, and now they're
going to charge you for the massive bandwidth that things like netflix
use to recoup some of that. Nothing is "free", so caveat emptor.
Case in point, my aunt pinged me when Cox sent her the threat of
overage charges, where she really only does tv streaming. She was at
least a 1tb over their "normal" limit now, and would be charged
accordingly. Only things she really does is use Netflix and Vue for
tv, but apparently enough bandwith to exceed their cap, and she
doesn't even do 4k content or have kids soaking it up, where many do.
I can only imagine the bandwidth needs with a house full of kids doing
the same, plus gaming and everything else...
Still cheaper than paying for cable tv, but I presume their charging
will only rapidly escalate to offset their dying video/telephony
services and lack of anything else they can really charge for. Since
every other carrier is dogpiling in to slaughter and feast on the
corpse of net neutrality, Cox decided in their own interests to hop on
he bandwagon too. Thanks for all the fish, Trump.
