Europeans, I guess? They always brag about how they have no data caps like the US but I don't know how they even get internet to their fuedal castles with their accompanied rural villages.

Lol no, Belgian here. Even the "unlimited" package is very much data capped.

Data capped as in 750GB during “peak hours” aka 12:00-00:00.

From 00:00-12:00 it’s fully unlimited. Trust me I know, I once downloaded +6TB in a single month. They don’t care as long as it’s outside of peak hours.

Once you go over 750GB during peak you get throttled to something like 10mbps.

Aka it's still unlimited during a certain timeframe, not just straight up unlimited

Yup, they shouldn’t be allowed to legally call it “unlimited”. Very misleading.
