No, that's a worse analogy. The issue is not with the amount consumed. We're well aware that there's no such thing as all-you-can-eat or "unlimited" anything. A Matt Stonie would be banned from any all-you-can-eat buffet.

What's egregious is ISPs also enforcing _how_ I'm allowed to consume the data I'm paying for. So the fork analogy is much more appropriate.
