Re: A suggestion for all telcos everywhere

No it's not. Definitions change yes - but "unlimited" has not done so. I would expect that if you asked 100 people to explain what it means then 99 people would be able to scrape up a similar meanings in volumetric terms. In this case this word is not being changed by "social convention" it is being distorted by liars in marketing departments to knowingly commit fraud and to mislead with no other goal than to line corporate pockets at the customers expense.
