    Wow, shilling for YouTube premium and anti-net-neutrality (the “discount through your phone company” part) in one comment.

      Is recommending a product that you’re satisfied with “shilling”?

      Is there a product in this world that you think is worth the price? Does that make you a shill?

        Not allowing ISPs to pick and choose winners among web services is absolutely what Net Neutrality is about. Bundling or discounting subscriptions isn’t technically the same thing as zero-rating, but the end result of making a particular ISP-preferred service cheaper than alternatives is the same.

          You’re just trying to piggyback on a vaguely-related concept that your audience already likely hates. Call things what they are, not what would be convenient to you if they were.
