I wonder why the ISPs over there are offering such relatively low upload
speeds compared to here in the UK. I assume that it is just the rate
that they've decided to offer.


Could it be a way to discourage people from operating servers, and so
using more bandwidth?

As I said earlier when you are talking about content producers like
Comcast, they may just be trying to slow down pirates.
