I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring

One of their promises is that there are no caps or data limits.
There is a hardware limit of 7 megabits/sec on the top level plan.
We do pay more as well at $89 CAN per month.
But it is much better than cell data, which everyone outside of towns was limited to less than 3 years ago.
Then it was 6-10 GB/month at $189 CAN/month.
Crazy, huh?
My sister in Calgary is with Shaw for around $25 CAN/month with lots of speed, but limited data.
