Rogers Mobile Internet Plan

With a data plan, 1kb of data costs $5/5000 kb = $0.001/kb

Without a data plan, 1kb of data costs $0.05/kb

Um.. you mean Rogers is charging 50 times more for each kb if I don’t subscribe to their data plan?

To me, it feels like I am being penalized for accessing data without a data plan.
