limite de dados
1. A restriction imposed by an internet service provider that limits the amount of data a user can download or upload within a specific billing period
My internet plan has a 500GB data cap per month.
Meu plano de internet tem um limite de 500GB de dados por mês.
2. The maximum amount of data allowed before additional charges are applied or service is throttled
Once I exceed my data cap, my connection speed is reduced significantly.
Depois que ultrapasso meu limite de dados, minha velocidade de conexão é reduzida significativamente.
Data caps are more commonly imposed by internet service providers in the United States and increasingly in Brazil, particularly for mobile and home internet services. In Brazil, the term 'franquia de dados' is frequently used in mobile telecommunications, while 'limite de dados' is the more general translation. This practice has become a point of consumer contention in both countries, with debates about net neutrality and fair data practices.
