Net neutrality: CRTC bans Bell from subsidizing data usage for mobile TV app - The Globe and Mail: "Canada’s telecom regulator has ruled against a billing practice by cellphone providers that exempts certain television content streamed on wireless devices from customers’ monthly data caps.
The decision, which applies specifically to mobile television apps offered by Bell Mobility Inc. and Videotron Ltd., sets a new limit on how companies that own both media and communications businesses can use television and sports content to bolster their wireless or Internet divisions.
It also has implications for the Canadian approach to net neutrality, the principle that telecom providers should treat all content that flows through their networks equally, and not give any type of preference to content they own." 'via Blog this'
