Uncapped Capped

I live in a small cottage in what is essentially a student complex. At the centre of our complex is a router, which connects us all to the Internet. One of our small community -- the landlord is keeping mum as to who -- persistently downloaded movies, so blowing all the rest of us out of the water.  E-mails, research, banking, networking were all sunk. Then our telecommunications giant Telkom stepped in, stating that "the general performance of our (their) network" was affected, and they capped the uncapped service. That is, they cut us all off. OBSERVATION: It makes an interesting study in human behaviour.
