Comcast adds Chicago customers to those under data caps

Comcast is increasing the number of home internet customers
who will face limits on how much data they can use before
getting hit with extra charges. The company is adding the
Chicago region and says that caps will now cover 23 percent of
customers, from 14 percent before. Caps already apply in
Atlanta, Miami, Memphis and Nashville, Tennessee, and other
regions. AT&T and some smaller providers also meter home
internet.

Meanwhile, giving credit where credit is due, Charter/TWC/Spectrum has
no data caps and has promised there won't be any for quite a few years
at least.
