I thought one of the things that net neutrality was supposed to protect us from, was ISP's pulling shit like charging extra for various content access.

Then I found this this morning.

Comment below don't really help me grasp WTF, but that image to me is pretty damning of NN, if that's what NN looks like.

This is what it looks like in Portugal without NN.

That's what abandoning NN looks like.

See next comment. "NN is law in EU."

Looks like there is a loophole for mobile carriers offering semi-flatrates.

But see Indonesia for a country without NN.

It had a screenshot from some Portugal provider showing how they make you pay extra for various different parts of the web. Like the shot xyzzy posted, but not so bad. It only had like 6 - 8 items.

I'm confused.
