    I'm quite surprised that nobody seems to be talking about this here so I thought I'd start one.

    To the uninitiated, Globe recently updated their FUP for most of their unlimited data plans in that, you only have 1GB a day or 3GB a month to play with at LTE or HSDPA+ speeds. Once you hit the limit, your connection gets throttled down to "2G speed".

    I'm sure a lot will agree that their "2G speed" is useless. So the "unlimited" tag is both misleading and a blatant lie.

    Might as well call it "Globe's Fair Use Fallacy".

    Here' the FUP: Fair Use Policy |Plans and Promos | Mobile Internet - globe.com.ph

    And here's Globe's infographic justifying the FUP, which I find ridiculous:
