Quite a few ISP/media conglomerate monopolies like AT&T and T-Mobile are zero-rating their own streaming services' traffic, while still counting bytes for Netflix against a pathetic mobile data cap. Anti-competitive and unfair, but it's completely permissible in a world without net neutrality.

Huh? T-Mobile has no streaming content service.

They also give Netflix away for free with many of their plans.

You get Netflix for free with T-Mobile because they have a business arrangement. It's anti-competitive to the next Netflix.

Wasn’t the NN claim you would be charged more for services? As I understand it, not charging you for a specific service would still be allowed under NN.
