I think Chris's bandwidth should be capped, too much computer knowledge would escape into the world. Bandwidth capping and charging a tiered layer for Internet access is the beginning where only the rich can afford it. This makes the Internet providers very happy.

My 8meg connection drops to below 1 meg for six hours and now they are capping as well, even though I signed up for 'unlimited' use. I'm moving to ADSL24 and getting 345 gigs a month uncapped, unthrottled and fully burstable. And they include a control panel which allows me to check pretty well everything I want. So I should be getting a minimum of 7.2 megs 24/7 for little more than I pay now. Extra gigs work out at about 25pence (50 cents) per month. Not bad really :) In life, people usually have to pay for what they consume and I don't see why bandwidth should be any different.
