Does UK honor "net neutrality"? If yes, that could be a way to hold them (ISP, whoever it be) accountable.

Ofcom (the UK’s coms regulator) has just announced a review of net neutrality [1]. Which will have some big companies aiming to give themselves more “flexibility”.

Currently however, providers are bound by EU mandates to treat every packet the same (roughly speaking).

I hope it stays that way.
