Is unlimited Wi-Fi truly unlimited?

Is unlimited Wi-Fi really unlimited? Pshh, yeah right! I mean, come on, we’ve all been there, haven’t we? That moment when you think you’ve struck gold, “unlimited” streaming, downloading ’til your heart’s content… then BAM! Suddenly, your connection is slower than a snail on tranquilizers.

It’s like that time I downloaded, like, ALL the episodes of that new show everyone was talking about (no judgement, please!). I was thinking, “Unlimited, baby! Bring on the binge-watching!” The next day? Forget about it. My internet was basically unusable. Turns out, my “unlimited” plan had a “fair usage” policy. Fair usage, my foot!

So, no, “unlimited” Wi-Fi isn’t truly unlimited. These providers, they have these sneaky little things called fair usage policies. Basically, if you use what they consider “excessive” data (and who really knows what that means, right?), they can throttle your speed – making it painfully slow – or even, in extreme cases, temporarily cut you off. It’s all about making sure everyone gets some access, they say. But sometimes it feels like they just want to keep us on a tight leash. It’s frustrating, isn’t it? Makes you wonder what “unlimited” even means anymore.
