Internet speeds may be intentionally throttled by ISPs for various reasons, including network congestion management and data cap enforcement. Throttling can lead ISPs to prioritize their services over others, such as their own streaming platforms. Although throttling is legally contentious in places with net neutrality regulations, exceptions exist. It poses financial implications as costs may be passed onto consumers, highlighting the ethical concerns regarding internet service practices and the necessity for transparency in bandwidth management.
An ISP might deliberately slow down your connection in order to manage network congestion, enforce data caps on your plan, or prioritize certain types of traffic.
Throttling can be used as a leverage tool to extract higher payments from companies, pressuring them to pay for faster speeds for their customers.
