Yeah like I said they are misleading everyone. Just go to Straight Talk forum and look around. You can ask over there but they never give a straight answer if you ask directly. Type in throttle and you will see what I mean.

Worse thing they can do is bring down your speed to dial up. That article isn't old its from last summer when the ad campaign came out.

They use to say no streaming of any kind now they say Pandora is okay on the lowest setting but no video streaming. They throttle streaming of any kind other than Pandora. They say it's okay to watch like small clips on YouTube but not continuous streaming is allowed. If you point out the data page that mentions what that ad did in the link. They will side step it with you.

They have stopped giving public answers on what is allowed for the most part. I see several threads have been removed too.
