I'd rather see mobile just block sites that use too much bandwidth.


Because that's the site's fault how? Isn't a user who is going to that site actually using the bandwidth?

The alternative of (eventually) reaching into my pocket to pay for it is not welcome. I don't use those sites very often.


You don't use Google or Facebook often, or you don't use any site that has video, audio, images, or downloads?

What happens is likely to be in your favor. Unlimited bandwidth plans are a passing fad. You can probably keep your current rate by agreeing to a small amount of monthly bandwidth, while others will go to a 'premium' plan.

I don't have any data plan myself. I'm sure they are great for the person on the go, but that's not me.
