Well as browsing/visiting a website involves downloading pages, images etc to PC for viewing the same in web browser, then actually it is same as downloading.
Now for example, if an Internet service provider(SIM company) says that "browsing is free, but downloading is charged", but technically speaking how could he know that difference.
It's just transfer of data through internet,
as per my understanding it may be termed as
Downloading= n( browsing )
Correct me if I am wrong,
My question is how could that ISP company restrict the download?
Edit: Consider some techniques which would be used by ISP to monitor downloading:
Case 1: If they blocked anyone who crosses certain data usage limit, then they would be violating their own lines of free browsing.
Case 2: They considered blocking continuous flow of data- which is in case of downloading.
then I would think of downloading a file part by part, meaning : I will start the download, pause it , then resume it again, repeating it till download is complete.,
it would certainly seem to be eqvalent to browsing data consumption..
