If it worries people so much, change broadband provider or change to a business account.

The old 'thin end of the wedge' argument comes into play here. I've used the analogy before that it's pointless running for cover under the branches of another ISP as when the rain spreads, you're still gonna get wet.
Or more simply, if people who are unhappy with it change providers, ntl will be seen to have won and all we'll get is 'heavy' users getting chased from provider to provider.
If it wasn't for 'heavy' users driving development, we probably wouldnt even have broadband.
Of course not everyone is going to want to take a stand against the cap and that's completely up to the individual
