So I am seeding like a mad man and according to my boradband provider I have unlimited usage and data…

But I have heard that others when seeding and they were told they have “unlimited” the broadband provider cut them off after X amount… What can I do to ensure this doesn’t happen?

    Yeah, US is a real backwater when it comes to data - availability, privacy, you name it. Heck, my ISP will let me install for free, but I either have to buy my own modem or pay them $15/mo to rent one of theirs. I technically get wifi roaming with the company I use, but it’s rarely useful. I won’t torrent without a VPN; my ISP is a hardass for torrenting.

    There are decent plans in some areas in the big cities in the US, but outside of that it’s pretty bleak…and there’s a lot of “outside of the cities” in the US.
