Data caps in 2024.. first world country.. allegedly.

first world country
That just means NATO, not high on the human development index.

That is the original meaning. The colloquial meaning is different. Language is fluid.

Actually, the US was downgraded to “developing nation” for lack of nationwide accessible healthcare in 2017.
-
See, now that terminology works much better! The counterpart to it is "developed" not "first world," though.
Examples:
- "Switzerland is a developed, third world country."
- "The US is a developing, first world country."
(Disclaimer: I'm neither agreeing or disagreeing with folks' assessment of the US, just discussing categories.)

Feels more like regressing than developing. Maybe they should update the labels
-
Developing vs. developed. It was, in fact, regression.

Not in my area. Our local ISPs are great, I have 2 options for fiber at affordable prices, with no data caps. Fuck comcast and AT&T - it's the biggest ISPs that push bullshit like that on the public.
