Don't limit our bandwidth

The Issue

Comcast has decided to test out new limitations to their customers bandwidth in select areas. If this becomes a success, they will spread the policies elsewhere. The current limitation will be 300GB/month. A limit, which Comcast states is far less than most people use. After this limit is reached, the customer will be charged an additional $10 for an extra 50GB block of data. This change comes at a time when more people than every use services such as Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, Steam, Amazon, etc. It is very easy to hit that limit in this day and age and Comcast is attempting to take advantage of its consumers. Let's show them that we will not accept this travesty.
