    How old were you then? What was your internet quota? It’s so interesting to hear how different age groups or demographics interacted with the same content.

      For me in the mid 2000s we had satellite internet and I think the daily quota was like 200mb.

        I remember around the same time we had a 300 MB monthly quota on dialup. It made me very wary of what I did online and how large different kinda of media is.

        Things changed a bit after we got a 4(?)GB monthly quota over 3G a few years later.

      A teenager, so early to mid 2000s. I can’t remember what the quota was other than a couple of dodgy limewire albums and computer aids. And dad getting pissed when we pretty much bricked his computer
