> It's like the always-hilarious argument against universal healthcare
Not really; I'm strongly in favour of universal healthcare. I would like it to be more universal, and better-funded.
Now, you mention insurance: are you advocating for an insurance market where everyone pays the same rate, regardless of their previous claim record? Because that's what you get if there are no data caps. In fact it's even worse with insurance, because there are many situations where you must have insurance by law; nobody's compelled by law to have an internet connection, let alone a contested one.
