It is mostly a fear tactic to try to get you to reduce your consumption. Problem is consumption has been increasing year over year at a very rapid rate. Everyone wants a HD quality video, Youtube even does 2k. Shit I thought I saw 4k. Articles like this from 2012 point to it Linky!. Up 120% in 1 freaking year, Netflix responsible for 33% of that increase, Youtube is 8% of all traffic and Facebook double that almost at 15% and this was 2012![You must be logged in to view images.

Thanks and I fucked up the % I quoted for youtube and facebook were upstream on mobile not downstream on home which is what your provider is really holding against you. Those are Youtube @ 14.8% of net traffic and facebook @ 2%, Netflix was 33%. And again this was 2012.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
