    Time Warner Cable was the second-largest cable television provider in the United States (a distant second, behind Comcast). It was formerly owned by Time Warner, the parent company of cable networks such as CNN, Cartoon Network, TBS, and TNT. TWC was spun off into a separate company from Time Warner in 2009 for it then to be acquired by Charter Communications in 2016. It still retains its name in some markets but has otherwise been renamed to Spectrum, Charters own brand.

    TWC has recently ignited an internet controversy with a pilot program, tested in select markets, that places a 50 GB (or lower, depending on service tier) monthly cap on internet subscribers' downloads. Strangely enough, this pilot program was never tested in any market where Verizon's FiOS is available. User outrage has led TWC to suspend the program... for now.
