AT&T and Verizon defend data caps on home Internet service

"Still, the companies want the ability to charge heavy broadband users
extra in the future, just as they do today with their cellular
offerings. In filings with the FCC posted on the commission's website
yesterday, AT&T and Verizon object to proposals by Netflix and others
that would include data caps in the FCC's definition of broadband. The
definition affects the FCC's analysis of nationwide broadband
deployment, and companies that accept Universal Service funds when
building networks in rural areas must match the standard."
