I don't know what you are talking about, but what I'm talking about is
metered bandwidth.

I.e. 0.1 cents per meg + $5/month as an example.  Like every other
utility service known to man, in other words.

Your water company does not turn off your water if you use over a
certain amount, they just charge you more.  Internet service should be
no different.
