Overview
  • History of data capping/throttling
  • Controversies
  • Suggestions
  • Research Schedule

5
What is data throttling/capping?
  • Bandwidth Cap limits transfer of specified
    amount of data over a period of time
  • Bandwidth Throttling intentional slowing of
    internet services

6
History of Data Capping/Throttling
  • 2008 Comcast 250GB limit for residential plans
  • 2010 Verizon, T-Mobile, ATT stopped offering
    unlimited mobile data plans

7
Controversies
  • Bandwidth usage increasing dramatically while
    costs are falling
  • Stifles competition and innovation
  • Data caps do not address the issue of network
    congestion
  • Profits for cable companies and ISPs are
    skyrocketing

8
  • In order to keep the free flowing of information,
    speech, and everyday life continually
    progressing and improving there has to be room
    for growth
