This is an anticompetitive act. Anyone using >1TB is more than likely using Netflix, Youtube, etc. Comcast are using their broadband service to push people back to using Comcast cable and digital services!

I use about 2 to 3 TB every month, and I have a 200Mbps plan for 1 year. The data cap is not part of the plan when I sign it, is it legal to set a cap without get acknowledgement from it's customer?

I've been wondering the same thing. At the very least you should be able to argue that they've changed the contract and you should no longer be held liable for early termination.

I agree completely. My bet is this is Comcast's way of fighting back against net neutrality. With 4K streaming coming fast, it seems like they want to further pad those profit margins under the guise of fairness.
