The Internet is Robust but Fragile, Requiring Attention, Protection
“You can’t account for everything that happens to people who touch you. You know, I learned a long time ago, there are some things in this life that you just accept the way they are.” – Miss Kitty, “Gunsmoke,”Arness Productions, 1955-75
Gunpowder, which was invented during the Tang Dynasty in the 9th century; and the Internet,…

If you read through this you'll find most people either don't realize (or don't care) people have bad internet or data caps. Despite people mentioning it constantly. I'm not on data caps (bandwidth caps) anymore, but I still have really bad internet. Downloading huge games would take a whole day or couple days. So as a gamer I honestly can say I fear the day where everyone will decide to go digital. For us with bad internet and data caps that will be a bad day. And some fools will tell us to get better internet. But for most of us we can't. The cost, the place- it's all the same. #FightForPhysical
Dropbox is hamstrung by download limits and bandwidth caps. Whether its trying to upsell you on a Pro account or trying to limit their costs, Dropbox throws up arbitrary road blocks between you, your data, and the people you need to share it with.
Dropbox has some pretty interesting bandwidth throttling and capping policies. Most are designed to push account holders to Pro storage plans. Others are wholly designed to nickel and dime you.
For example, each time you share a Dropbox file with someone, the size of that file is subtracted from the total storage you have left. They do that every time you share the file. So if you share a 25Mb PDF with 10 people, there’s a quarter gigabyte gone from your account with 90% of that being completely arbitrary and artificial. If you work with large files, this system of racking up share data can get you into real trouble. And like almost all road blocks and artificial barriers, they always get in the way at the worst time.
Let’s take a closer look at Dropbox’s bandwidth and download limits:
20 GB per day total download cap. You and the people you shared your files with can’t exceed 20 GB of data downloaded in 24 hours.
Despite the size of the files you share, no more than 100,000 files can be downloaded in 24 hours.
Pro accounts are limited to 200 GB total download cap per day.
Now, let’s take a look at Backstage bandwidth and download limits:
There is no total download cap. You and the people you share your files with can download as much as their Internet connections can handle.
There are no limits to the number of files you can share.
There are no limit to the number of files you and the people you share them with can download at any time.
No Backstage accounts have any limitations on the bandwidth or total amount of data you can download at any time.
Backstage gives you bandwidth and storage on tap no matter what. If you need to share a big file with a large group of people, we don’t get in your way. Not only do we not place limits on how much you can download, we don’t throttle your connection either. When you download a file from Backstage, our pipe is wide open to you. You will be able to sync and share your data as fast as the Internet connection between you and us will allow - always. Backstage never gets between you and your data.
ISPs tell government that congestion is “not a problem,” impose data caps anyway
If I shook my head any harder it would fly off of my neck.

Comcast to Reinstate Bandwidth Caps
Comcast to Reinstate Bandwidth Caps
It appears as if one of the largest cable and home Internet service providers in the United States is planning to reinstate monthly bandwidth limits on its many customers. The news is raising new and old questions about net neutrality, Internet fairness, and bandwidth usage caps in general.
Recently, Comcast executive vice president David Cohen told a New York audience that his company plans to…

Comcast has taught me something valuable here. I'm going to start renaming my shortcomings. For instance, I'm no longer fat. I'm "extra-value sized". Nobody wants "data caps" or "data thresholds". If ISPs had their way we'd go back to the days of AOL and paying per minute of internet usage.
Pure speculation. Hopefully it comes true, but this is pure speculation.
