Siddhartha: Last month I visited India for my project & found that all ISPs are suffering from bandwidth diarrhoea
Roxanne: How bad is it? How did it happen?
Siddhartha: Really bad, for years they had terrible case of bandwidth-constipation, like the cost of 100 mbps FTTH now is a third of what a 4 mbps copper line used to cost 4 years ago. This guy Ambani shook up the industry in 2016 & this scared the shit out (literally) of all small & big ISPs that were selling crappy internet for exorbitant prices for years. 100 mbps costs $8 a month now.
Roxanne: Whoa! That's a serious case of bandwidth-diarrhoea

A bandwidth thug is also known as a leecher.
A bandwidth thug is a person who can often be found on Internet forums. His intentions of being on a forum is not to network, find information, share files and make friends but to gain easy access to multimedia files without having to make any contributions. He will show no gratitude for the files he downloads freely and bandwidth thugs will often steal a multimedia file link and post it on their own site or forum and pretend it was uploaded by themselves.

Example:A forum that shares DVD's.There are about 1000 members.
They created a private place where when you upload 1 DVD a week as gratitude for the 100 or more DVD's you get access to every month.
Most of those members upload files to a free storage site that has about 100 gigabytes of bandwidth.So a DVD that is ripped is about 600 to 1400 mb.So about a 100 people can download the movie.And if that's not enough the person can always upload the file to a file storage site again.The bandwidth thug does not contribute but with only steal the bandwidth.
Usually not even 1 or 2 people can download the file because the bandwidth thugs post his links on warez sites that have about 10.000 visitors a day and files that were ment to be shared on your forum are dead within a hour.
Bye bye,leaving your computer on all night to upload a file.Bandwidth stolen by a thief.A bandwidth Thug.

The feeling of impatient despair after realizing that the video you have just clicked on is not what you wanted, or is dull and worthless to your purposes. Similar to buyer's remorse; Bandwidth Remorse lasts for up to 6 seconds, which is the time it takes to find the "X" to close the video. Six seconds in Internet time is currently 3 minutes. A loose application of Moore's law is increasing the time (in 18 months - 3 seconds will be 6 Internet minutes).
After clicking "watch video" on the condo for sale ad, Max had bandwidth remorse. The "video" turned out to be a low quality slideshow with music and a cheesy script. It took Max five seconds to realize his misstep and find the "X" that closed the PowerPoint "video". Those five seconds felt like minutes.
