Literally what are you talking about none of the big companies here in my province of 1.3 million people force you to have a data cap
Even bell mts, the biggest, stufftiest telecom conglomerate in the province doesn't have a single plan with a data cap
OT though: ISPs like to have closed door meetings about how they can collectively jack up prices and save tiny scraps of cash at the detriment of the consumer.
Data caps is just another one of those things that they've all agreed to do to keep competition stifled amongst themselves.
