Overage charges for data usage is one of the biggest new wireless industry scams that is starting to develop. How can carriers charge consumers for data usage when consumers have no context to understand how much data they are actually using? What regulatory parameters have the FCC and FTC done to manage the developing crises? How can you trust the carriers themselves to self regulate their own customer data usage? Who or what independent application is measuring the amount of data you are using on the phone? How can carriers charge you the ridiculous overage fees similar to what they have done in the past for text messaging? Text messaging is a scam and its a $10 billion dollar business for both Verizon and AT&T. Data usage will probably be a $100B dollar business without any fair competition.
