Deutsche Telekom kills fixed line IP flatrates

If you look at their current conditions, for Call & Surf VDSL and fiber contracts there is already a cap in place [1]. It is not enforced, though, but certainly will be in the future. Entertain contracts on the other hand do not mention this for VDSL, only fiber [2].

From my basic understanding they cannot change that, so I switched to Entertain for the next two years. I currently costs the same as my old contracts for 24 month.

IMHO throttling to 6Mbit/s is a lot different than throttling to 384kbit/s

Agreed, but it still hurts. Also, the upload goes down from 10mbit to 0,5, which is quite severe.
