They will no will no longer throttle mobile internet to unusable speeds after data allowances are exhausted, so it is kind of a “minimum universal connection” via mobile.

      It’s enough for email, chats, banking and other essentials.

      I would say it’s not enough to stream a movie, which seems fair to me if you spent all the data you have for the period.

        400kbps would be slow as hell, for all of those use cases. Video would be unusable, but other stuff would still be insanely slow with all the bloat in modern websites and tracking crap in apps.

      Yeah, how is the website supposed to load a >GB of bloat and ads quickly?
