Never. He noted that ADSL is still cheaper than mobile data and is much more reliable.

Some ISPs even shape and throttle capped accounts. When clients purchase capped accounts, they already have one limit imposed – the cap. Why must further limits be imposed?

In the ADSL arena, an increasing number of providers are promising unshaped ADSL for next to nothing. Wright noted that the broadband market is becoming ever more competitive and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are now offering packages like never before. The Minister of Communications, Yunus Carrim, recently met with the Council of the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (Icasa), and urged all parties to work together to cut communications costs in South Africa. Amid a looming broadband price war in South Africa, OpenWeb CEO Keoma Wright says that unscrupulous ISPs derive their profit from throttling the living daylights out of their clients.
