Last time, I promise

I'll say this once more and I'll never say it again... I promise, really... (just like all the the other times I've promised).

I don't think it's a matter of numbers... it's behavior. Comcast will never, ever say, "Okay, we know you're up to something that violates the TOS, but if you agree to keep it to 200gb, we'll be okay with that."

It's not going to happen. Not now, not ever.

Even thought most people seem to be having a terribly difficult time with this easy concept, (perhaps it's too easy?) one happy thing remains true... Comcast is also saying, "we don't really care what you do... as long you do it in a reasonable way. You're mature enough and responsible enough to know what 'reasonable' means without our having to spell it out for you and creating a morass of legal mumbo-jumbo endlessly interpreted by amateur lawyers on forums. Um... you are that mature and responsible, aren't you?"

Again, I don't any of this for a fact... but the evidence is so overwhelming, I can't figure out any other explanation.
