Data collected by our researchers shows that many of the common providers in the area use data caps on residential broadband plans. Data caps are a public issue because subscribers view caps as a tactic to limit "cord cutting", while providers explain data caps are a necessary strategy as they struggle to manage heavy network traffic.
