Most of them in the U.S.  For now.
Speed capping is common, but, as far as I know, you don't pay any more
whether you let it sit there or fill the pipe 24/7.

Back in the '90s, it became pretty clear to everyone in the biz here that
unmetered access was the model that got and kept customers.  Clearly,
it didn't shake out the same way everywhere.

they usually prohibit running servers on your machine.

Server hosting here pretty much always has a charged based on bandwidth
usage.
