section8atl | technology | t5_2qh16 | ccgwc27 | Actually I think the reason they stopped offering unlimited data was because the general population stopped using phones primarily for making calls, which meant Verizon was losing a ton of money because a lot less people were not going over their allowed talk minutes anymore.
