"Verizon is reportedly set to begin testing a sponsored data program that
would let companies pay Verizon to deliver online services without using up
customers' data plans. The news comes from aRe/code interview
<http://recode.net/2015/12/09/verizon-to-start-testing-toll-free-data-in-coming-days/>
with
Verizon Executive VP Marni Walden. “The capabilities we’ve built allow us
to break down any byte that is carried across our network and have all or a
portion of that sponsored,” Walden told Re/code."

is that still net neutrality?

who cares? mobile was excepted from the NN rulings.
