That's about 140 hours of 4K streaming. That's a lot for a single person, but not a lot for a family with multiple devices, especially if you throw in some 50 GB games in there.

Or Microsoft Onedrive being stuck in an eternal upload/download loop.

Back when I had Comcast, that bug cost me $200. Thanks Microsoft.

I've had a mobile podcast app decide to start re-download all my podcasts off WiFi, even though I had it set to download only over WiFi.

It's a good reminder that our bugs have real world implications.
