Oops, I actually know that bit I got a little lost in the comment chain. I had just read the comment above yours talking about the 2gbps plan, hence the half the time comment. My ISP has also started offering 2gbps but still has a 1TB cap which means it’s possible to hit the cap in just over an hour which is pretty funny.
So one thing that a lot of people overlook is that even with a data cap the higher speeds is still more convenient if you consume the same amount of stuff. It isn't as noticeable now as it was when speeds went up in the kilobyte ranges thought so many people won't even see the difference especially if they don't hit the cap.
That said, caps are bullshit since network congestion are caused by when people use it at the same tike, not because of the total amount per month.

I don't think Google fiber has a data cap, but that is second hand from a friend that has it.
