If this isn't simply a way to generate more cash while still appearing price competitive to the newcomer, why not implement soft caps?

I anticipate many technically disinclined people receiving very large bills as a result of running an open wireless network.

maybe blocking open wireless networks is one of their goals. They want to be able to maximize revenue - if a couple of thousand people have to now actually buy access, rather than riding off of their neighbors - it's a win
