For me in the mid 2000s we had satellite internet and I think the daily quota was like 200mb.
I remember around the same time we had a 300 MB monthly quota on dialup. It made me very wary of what I did online and how large different kinda of media is.
Things changed a bit after we got a 4(?)GB monthly quota over 3G a few years later.
