Of course, Comcast's own OTT services are exempt from the data cap. What a coincidence :)

And a net neutrality violation. Maybe CA customers won't be subject to the cap anymore? Or maybe they'll force Comcast to include their own traffic in the cap?

Almost certainly the latter. Data caps are still legal, from my understanding.

Yes, the caps are legal, but counting some data towards the caps and other data not towards it is what's illegal. The question is will Comcast hamstring their own streaming service by counting in the cap, or just get rid of the cap?
