In my country back in the early 2000s we used to have limits on the data we downloaded. Normally the international limit was very limited, and the national one was either high or unlimited.

Because of this, when downloading things from the internet, normally with Emule, we would turn on the "download from national sources only" feature.

Sometimes I would forget it (sometimes intentionally because of lack of peers 🤫), and oh boy oh boy, as soon as we went past that limit the internet bill started rising... fast!

My father would get so mad at me and my brother 😅
