Yeah, don't you love it? Marketing: A realm where math doesn't really matter.


"Unlimited dialup!" - then they call you and ask you to disconnect for at least several hours a day.

"Unlimited downloads!" - then you get a letter saying you're over the limit.


A better method might be to hijack several large servers or routers on the Internet's backbone and start a ddos attack.

It would just slow things down for awhile, but not destroy the Internet.

It's like 10GB of storage. Might as well say unlimited- if you can use that much for email, tell grandma to stop sending 10MB jpgs.

:camera:'s please

I'm thinking of you dNor

If it is 10GB of storage then why not advertise 10GB of storage instead of lying? I mean, it is an e-mail account like you said already so I really don't care that much but I just don't see the point of making stuff up like that.

Why not load up the internet with some of the nastiest porn you have ever seen. People will stay away in droves and the internet will shrink to nothingness. Easier then sending emails to yourself.
