At least that install size is light, right?

    I don’t see why it matters though? You’re not gonna be playing the game on your phone with limited data

      Because my ISP charges $50/mo extra for the “privilege” of having unlimited data.

        My biggest pet peeve is that they sell you a service, at a certain speed, that you can only use for like 50 hours a month…

          I love where I live, but my biggest miss on moving was leaving my fiber network behind and moving to Cox monopoly territory.

            I’m in the same boat. Their only competition where I am is DSL, other than 5G/satellite.

          I agree with you. They’ve even become a level of corporate governance with the whole copyright issue.

        I reckon it’s been a good ten years since I had a data cap on my home internet. These days I pay £30 a month for unlimited 900mbps fibre and it’s wonderful.

          Thank your regulators then. There are very much still a thing. Not because they need to be. But because they allow ISPs to make more money by setting arbitrary limits.
