they must have bought up <INSERT NAME OF COMPANY WOT USED TO DO IT>,
and in any case they say:

	From historical data it has been shown that 5% of the users,
	if left unchecked, often consume up to 50% of the total
	available bandwidth, <BLAH BLAH BLAH>

	<SNIPPITY>
	which profile the use against that of the contracted service.
	If the monitored use is constantly above that of the profile,
	then access speeds will be reduced to one eight of the
	contracted speed for a period of 8 hours or until such time
	as their usage pattern returns to that of the contracted
	profile.

As me granny used to say, full of bottom.
