At least as compared to a year ago when I started my data plan, they also
go in to *MUCH* more detail on what is considered "unacceptable".

I was curious as to what they had to say now about older plans, like mine,
that specifically state "unlimited" or otherwise didn't clearly establish a
limit. For that, they now include this little ditty:

"If your usage on a Data Plan or Feature that does not include a specific
monthly Megabyte allowance or that is not billed on a pay–as–you–use basis
exceeds 5 Gigabytes per account line during any billing period, we reserve
the right to reduce throughput speed to a maximum of approximately 200
Kilobits per second for up to thirty days."
