When you signed up for your cable tv service, you knew up front it was a one
way signal.  When you signed up for dial-up, cable, satellite, or dsl
internet service, you knew up front that it was a two way signal.  Placing
limits on "unlimited" that weren't there before is not unlike your boss
placing a new limit of 30 hours a week of pay for the same 35 hours of work
you still have to do.
