« Just look at that trapeze artist, Bill. »
Can you ever have access to too much data? Will you store up so much that you run the risk of not using it all between now and the end of time? (Which, I’m told, is around 2021.)
Verizon would like you to believe that you really don’t need so much data at all.
A new ad confidently declares: « When you’re on your phone 24/7, you probably think you need an unlimited data plan. »
Well, yes. I probably do. How else can I watch all those fine NFL games and YouTube videos featuring trapeze artists eating celery while dangling over the Kariba Dam?
« Actually, » counters the ad, « the majority of people pay for data they never use. » Two out of three use less than 5GB, claims Verizon.
Now why could this be? Is it because carriers are so astonishingly generous that their customers simply have no idea what to do with all that lovely data they’ve been given?
Or could it be that too many people are so worried about their data plans running out that they behave in an unnaturally conservative manner?
As far as Verizon’s concerned, its new 5GB for $55 plan is exactly what you need.
