Interesting, on Exede's buy more data page, its suggested that with 1-GB of data, one can
"Visit 3,000 new webpages"
This may have been true in 2010, but ad supported sites these days are shoveling mega-bytes at visitors, per page it seems.
Although I have considered installing the Lynx text-based web browser, I suspect Exede's equipment will fetch the whole lot, which spins the old meter usage counter with unwanted bytes.
Which begs the question, after all of these years, of why Accelernet program can not sense an user's browser, say Lynx, to eliminate unwanted and not viewed objects (pics, vids, etc), or when an user's browser is configured to eliminate this/that?
To my current awareness, about all an user can do is use a program like FlashStopper on FireFox type browsers.
Accelernet program was originally designed for land based users, iirc., not satellite users who want to conserve their bandwidth.
