When I was a kid—about 12 years old—broadband had data limits, and the default offer was 1 gigabyte per month.
When my family upgraded from dial-up to broadband, this felt like a huge amount of data—and more importantly, speed!
Today I just organised the broadband for our new flat. There are no data limits anymore, and the package’s network download speed is 1 gigabyte per second.
In the space of 20 years, we’ve gone from my family’s entire bandwidth allowance for a month, now being used in a single second.
I think that’s pretty cool.
