just in time for GTA6 to come out and be 3TB in size
I wouldn't even mind tbh.
Except it would take 3 literal months to download it (stupid home internet with a 1.25TB data cap)
~~Can I ask what country so I can avoid it like the plague?~~
Ah yes, good ol' US of A. Why am I not surprised?
My ISP recently introduced data caps on unlimited (they throttle you to 4Mbit if you go past ~300GB or 500, not sure). I already wanted to leave but that's really lighting a fire under me to move the fuck out of here.
? I've never had a data cap and I'm in the US. Many areas now have alternatives to cable/DSL. I have fiber-backed Ethernet at the wall, and my city is rolling out muni-fiber, and we're honestly kind of late to the game compared to my local area.
Shop around, maybe you have more options now.
