For many people, half a megabit is more than their Internet uplink speed, and many are on capped/metered connections as well.

I haven't checked, but I imagine there's a "Metered connection mode" that limits things like auto-updates and perhaps loads lower resolution images. That could also disable bandwidth donation. You could also set the bandwidth to scale based on a speed test instead of a flat rate.
