if I recall, Portugal is one of the few countries in the West that has already implemented "No Net-Neutrality" .. pay-for-service over the open Internet. I have a screenshot of pricing for "social media tier" and others.

But recently the EU indicated it might move to crack down on the practice: https://www.engadget.com/eu-zero-rating-net-neutrality-rulin...

And it was Mobile plans only, since it's illegal to have zero-rating plans on fixed plans.
