I think he's tying speed and data more closely than is justifiable for most people. > you assume that people control their data usage that closely.
I see a natural inflation in data usage because the services I use are inflating the data supplied to my requests. Streamed video sizes increase, I actually have had to use my cloud back up (3 times unfortunately) in the last 3 months so I've had to download 250gb * 3 because I actually had a cloud back up, web page sizes increase from ad-bloat, my hard disk is larger, so my back up size needs increase.. And so on, and so on, and so on...
The speed increases are just a way to eventually tip you into data overages if the data cap does not increase proportionally to the speed increase.
