I'm not going to argue about your interpretation of the word unlimited and wish that its use was either banned or strictly enforced in this (and similar) contexts. That said, until accountability is legislated and enforced, it is not reasonable to assume that unlimited means unlimited. Just as marketing abuses the word, customers abuse the concept. That's especially true in a domain where processes can be automated and distributed, by some means or others.

sure, but I am not abusing the unlimited plan. it is reasonable to assume that "unlimited" means that a normal user like myself will not run into limits.

If you’re not abusing it and are just using it like a normal user, you won’t hit the limit.

As far as you’re concerned, nothing will change, so I’m not sure why you think this is bad for you.

You seem very confident I will not hit the limit. So presumably you know where the limits are? Where are they?

The article claims that 95% of users won't be affected when enforcing the policy. Assuming the claim is true, not affecting 95% of users is pretty much the definition of not affecting normal users.
