Abstract
A method of adjusting user experience on a social networking service includes setting a data-usage threshold for a plurality of features in the social networking service, providing the plurality of features to a user of the social networking service at an initial quality of service, and monitoring data usage by the user during a period of time in which the plurality of features is provided to the user. The method further includes, in response to a determination that the data usage by the user during the period of time satisfies the data-usage threshold: (1) reducing the quality of service for the user for one or more features of the plurality of features, and (2) providing the one or more features to the user at the reduced quality of service.
