    They were hard times indeed.

    How we prevailed I just don't know, the indefatigable human spirit I guess

    Back before unlimited data we had to travel to the outposts of the empire in mighty zeppelins.
    We never knew such wonder, we gorged ourselves, drinking the beauty with our eyes.

    It's still limited. Fair usage policies, etc. ComReg seems to think it's ok to use the word "Unlimited" because most people won't hit the limit. Which means it's ok to lie in ComReg's eyes. Funny, in a court of law, unlimited means unlimited, without limits, so no fair usage limit.

    It is still unlimited.

    It just gets slower but there is no cap on the data. And rightly so otherwise people would take the piss
