This same damn argument has been going on for over 5 years now and many idiots are to stupid to understand the AUP does set limits. Read the damn thing some time and then ask any child over about 8 years of age to explain it in words you can understand. At the point your bandwidth negatively affects anyone else on the node you become an abuser and become subject to account termination if you continue to interfere with the bandwidth usage of anyone else on your node after being notified of your abuse.

That's a bunch of bull. It's up to the ISP to keep your bandwidth
throttled to what the node can handle - not the other way around.
On a dial-up, you certainly wouldn't be asking people to not use
all of their bandwidth, would you ? Why should broadband be any
different ? If you give me a 6 Mb bandwidth, I'll use all of it
for as long as I like - if they have a problem with that, throttle
me back.
