Comcast has similar traffic caps for many of their plans. It's perfectly adequate for most typical users.

You don't know real suffering until you've tried browsing on HughesNet. $74.99/month for 50gb of 4mb/s up and 1mb/s down (yes, in 2023).

Don't worry though, once you hit your gratuitous 50gb/month limit, they only make your network 8x slower until you pay $10/extra gig... I wouldn't praise Starlink if it wasn't such a steal by comparison.

Don't you mean the other way around? Not that it's any better.
