Technically the user can use the connection to it's maximum theoretical speed as much as they like, however, if an ISP has a quota set at 12G/month, it just means that the cost is passed along to them when they exceed it.
And that seems like a bit of the handwaving. Where is it costing the ISP more when the user exceeds 12G/month?
No, its that they've run the numbers and found the users above 12G/month are using a significant fraction of their network capacity for whatever values of signficant and fraction you define. Adrian
