So as part of the Resnet we are going to get a 1024/256 Kbps connection - contention ratio 50:1.
But this is by far the best point:
A maximum weekly download limit of 1.3 GB (190Mb a day), approximately 5 GB per month. This is imposed in order to facilitate fair & equal access for all ResNet Service users; & prevent a small number of users from utilising the majority of the bandwidth available to the ResNet Service.
Right, this is seriously bollocks now....and they are charging us the equivalent of ₤20 a month for this pile of shit????????????
Man what is it we can do? Seriously this is just absolutely ridiculously stupid crap internet service.
I mean for example - with a 1Mbit connection - it will take us just over 20 minutes to get over our daily limit.
Download Linux? Nope.
Buy movies (legally)? What you kidding!
Watch Yahoo Launch / YouTube/ etc... - Man get out of here!
Nope using the internet for anything else apart from loading simple HTML pages circa 1995 - its all illegal. Yup - you would be a bandwidth whore.
Sorry but this has seriously pissed me off.
ANd ANd - they even havent said what happens after you go over your limit. I bet - that they will charge a ₤50 'General Misuse' charge.

Big woop, you fuckwits know it was bad, yet you all decide to go back onto campus accomodation for an even worse deal.
If wanking with manure gave u some dirty infection, you don't do it again thinking "it might be ok this time"... It's still wanking with manure.
Get over it, you made the choice to live there so accept it.
