Interesting thought experiment: aside from streaming videos, how much bandwidth do you actually need a day? That's updates, posts, tweets, news articles, and so forth.

Not very much. It's not unusual to load a humongous site with tons of libraries to get one or two sentences of information you wanted, usually after the obligatory 3 paragraphs of bullshit AI text.

My guess is that the actual information, in text, that you consume in various forms is extremely small. The ratio keeps getting worse and worse for the consumer.

Agreed. Everyone nowadays wants to make their media in non-text forms like videos, when I would honestly prefer that your tutorial on how to bake cookies could just be in text form. We shouldn't have to load megabytes of JavaScript to "watch" a recipe online that could easily be done in writing.
