There is another group that live with roomates, and whose roomates control
the broadband, either for reasons of distrust, or because of who is competent
and who is not.

I think that those groups could also really benefit from reductions in
bufferbloat because they basically can't control what their roomates do.
The "Fair" in FQ is pretty important.

In Canada, rates are sufficiently high until you get to unlimited tier that
young people can not affort to stream video on their mobiles.  The kids you
see on the subway streaming continuously have rich parents with unlimited family plans.
